Sarah graduated from London’s King’s College School of Medicine and has a Masters (with distinction) in Child Health from the University of Warwick. Her paediatrics training has spanned some of the country’s best known hospitals for newborn and children’s medicine, including Manchester Children’s Hospital, and Alder Hey Children’s Hospital in Liverpool. She teaches the Community Paediatrics curriculum at her alma mater, as well as to junior doctors and other health professionals.

Sarah has been passionate about paediatric medicine since she herself was a child. In clinic, she works with parents as the child’s advocate, to help her patients reach their full potential. As a paediatric consultant at one of London’s leading multi-disciplinary children’s centres, Sarah regularly reviews children with developmental delay, autism spectrum disorder and complex disability. She has also set up a successful service for children with sleep disorders.
