Dr Katerina Bambang
Consultant Gynaecologist
Specialist in Reproductive Medicine
Precision Women’s Health and Lifestyle Medicine Physician
Dr Katerina
I am a Consultant Gynaecologist working in women’s health for the last 18 years, passionate about using evidence based medicine to provide holistic care to women.
During my time in training, I became a member of the Royal College of Obstetricians & Gynaecologists and took time out to pursue a PhD in early pregnancy and miscarriage. I then went on to specialise in Reproductive Medicine at the Hewitt Centre, one of the largest NHS IVF units in the UK which is also where I currently practice as a Consultant Gynaecologist and Fertility Specialist.
The years of caring for women in hospital has made me realise that we are firefighting women’s health downstream and missing opportunities at optimising their health early on. Instead of addressing the root causes of their illnesses, we are merely supplying medicines to mask symptoms, much to women’s growing frustration.
I am from Cyprus and come from a family who are rooted in traditional Mediterranean life. This well-known approach to eating and living for health and longevity got me thinking about the women I look after. The body of evidence supporting traditional wisdom practices and lifestyle medicine to address root causes is growing and I believe we can truly have the best of both worlds by blending conventional medicine with integrative approaches to help women live their best lives.

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 Bambang 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.
