After gestational diabetes
A postnatal window to look at glucose, weight, sleep and cardiometabolic risk, and to write a plan that is usable rather than a leaflet at discharge.
Postnatal and metabolic
Metabolic risk after pregnancy often needs a proper follow-up
Gestational diabetes, pre-eclampsia and pregnancy-induced hypertension are not only obstetric events. They change what should happen next, and they belong in a consultant obstetric and gynaecological consultation led with lifestyle medicine and precision health. Preconception work sits here too. Face-to-face at The Richmond House Clinic, Penarth, and video consultations for the UK, Isle of Man and Gibraltar.

Where this work usually sits
After a hypertensive pregnancy
Follow-up after pre-eclampsia or pregnancy-induced hypertension, including blood pressure, recovery, and what the pregnancy may mean for later cardiovascular risk.
Before a next pregnancy
Preconception optimisation when metabolic health, a previous pregnancy complication, or a wish to prepare well is the reason for coming.
What a consultation is for
The first visit is a full obstetric and gynaecological consultation. It is led with lifestyle medicine and precision health: what is driving the picture now, which tests would change decisions, and which levers belong in writing. It is not a six-week check by another name.
