I am Dr Karen Ireland, an NHS GP with 20 years of experience in medicine.  

Before I embarked on medical training, I started my journey with a degree in Psychology and a Masters degree in Psychology and Health.

I followed a less unconventional pathway through work life, qualifying as Chartered Accountant and also working for British Airways and the BBC before moving back to health with a graduate entry degree in Medicine from the University of Oxford.  

I then undertook the challenge of moving to Reading to become both a GP and a mother.  My personal passions are skiing, walking and growing at my allotment!

With over 20 years in health, I have continued to serve and support the local community while broadening my path by becoming a Certified Lifestyle Medicine Practitioner and a SCOPE certified physician providing advice on obesity and weight management.  I also hold a BMS Principles and Management of Menopause qualification. 

The varied pathway I have travelled has given me a passion for and understanding of the challenges in our physical, mental and spiritual health as we journey through the ever changing landscapes of lives.

 My aim is to help as many people as possible find their way to great all round health and wellbeing.  I can help you to transform yourself to attain your goals of health, happiness and ultimately, peace.

I combine medical knowledge and psychological principles underlying change, for a holistic approach that is tailored specifically to you.
