About

 

My name is Harriet Campbell and I am both a medical doctor and a registered nutritional therapist.I have worked in NHS General Practice for 28 years,and during that time have developed a keen interest in digestive and gut health.

Since qualifying in 1993, I have observed a huge rise in patients suffering with digestive issues such as bloating, acid reflux, constipation/diarrhoea, tiredness and abdominal discomfort, resulting in being diagnosed with a catchall label of Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Medication gives temporary relief, but if the root causes aren’t addressed, then symptoms continue.

My desire to understand these root causes and provide better, more effective care for my patients led me to undertake further training in Functional Medicine with the Institute for Functional Medicine, and to additionally qualify as a Nutritional Therapist with the College of Naturopathic Medicine.

My approach is based on the foundational Functional Medicine principles of considering the specific impact of nutrition,lifestyle,environment,genetics and psychology on each individual’s health.

Every person is different,meaning that their health will be affected in different ways.

So, one condition may have many causes and one cause may result in many conditions.

This personalised approach enables treatment to be targeted at the root causes of symptoms for that individual patient.My years of experience in General Practice, in combination with my nutritional therapy training, places me in the unique position of fully understanding and appreciating your health journey on all levels,and hence working effectively with you to transform your digestive and gut health.

Testimonials

"Having suffered from IBS for about 30 years, I finally decided that I needed help to calm down my misfunctioning gut . Dr Campbell showed me that it was achievable. She taught me what to eat and which nutrients to supplement in order to meet the needs of my fragile digestive system . We also talked a lot about lifestyle intervention. She was so full of practical, easily actionable advice that my journey towards better health was a real pleasure. I felt supported, encouraged and empowered and I am delighted with the results achieved."
