About
GPhC-registered pharmacist and Independent Prescriber with over 10 years of community pharmacy experience and strong practical experience in weight management and GLP-1 medicines, including Mounjaro (tirzepatide) and Wegovy (semaglutide). I currently manage 50+ patients each month receiving Mounjaro (tirzepatide) for weight management in a busy community pharmacy, supporting patients with treatment progress, adherence, expectations, side effects and lifestyle change. Alongside this, I work in private digital healthcare, clinically screening GLP-1 treatment requests by reviewing patient questionnaires and medical histories, identifying contraindications, red flags and referral needs, and working within SOPs and clinical governance requirements.
I am now looking to develop further within a specialist weight-management prescribing service where I can combine my prescribing qualification with substantial patient-facing GLP-1 experience.
