Dr Clementina  

Dr Clementina is a consultant endocrine (hormone) specialist and paediatrician. She graduated from the University of Catania in Italy, completed specialist training in general paediatrics and then sub-specialised in paediatric endocrinology. Her practice has focused on the endocrine care of the young adult, based at the adult endocrine and reproductive medicine unit at University College London Hospital (UCLH).

Dr Clementina’s primary area of interest has been the field of reproductive endocrinology, and she has been providing care to women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), ovulatory disorders, disorders of sexual development and Turner Syndrome. Alongside this, she has also taken part in research, being involved in“The Reproductive Life Course Project” launched by Professor Conway in 2014.

Dr Clementina is a passionate believer in the whole person-centred care for prevention and management of chronic hormonal disorders. Seeking an individualised approach to improve patient’s health and quality of life, she has complemented her medical training with further education in Functional Medicine (AFMCP 2017), nutrition (PGCert Nutrition and Public Health, UCL 2012), ketogenic diet (American Nutrition Association 2021), and health coaching.

At Synthesis Clinic Dr Clementina is supporting people with thyroid hormone disorders, including autoimmune thyroiditis, hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism, as well as providing specialist endocrinology input for PCOS and complex HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) cases where this is needed for perimenopause and menopause symptoms.

Important Notice

Please note that Synthesis Clinic is not a specialist eating disorder (ED) clinic, and we are not able to take on patients with an active eating disorder. We are only able to support patients who have been in stable long-term remission from a past eating disorder. Please note that Dr Clementina is not an ED specialist. Some of our general nutrition education handouts provided may include foods to include and foods to limit, so if this may be triggering in any way, finding specialist support outside our practice would be best.
