About

I work as a General Practitioner and Family Physican assisting people from diverse backgrounds. I gain particular satisfaction from helping long-suffering people with long-standing undiagnosed or poorly diagnosed ailments. Patients find it easy to open up to me on an emotional level.

My skill as an Occupational Medicine Physician allows me to bring the puzzles of the employee and job role together and with adjustments to make the working environment more suited to the individual.

I have a particular interest in weight loss especially with people who find they are unable to lose weight the conventional way, and wellbeing. I also carry out consultations on individualised dietary supplementation requirements which I can do globally on a virtual service. With my network of partners ranging from the Americas, Europe, the Antipodeans and Southern Africa I have been able to reach a diverse range of people. Please contact me at shehnadr@gmail.com to arrange a chat.

  • Can a podiatrist treat foot fungus?

    Thank you for your inquiry, Absolutely, a podiatrist can assist. You may also be able to talk to your local pharmacist who can help you select appropriate over the counter treatments. Make sure you keep your feet dry, especially after a shower or bath; use a separate towel for the feet; change socks if they become damp or after exercise. Remember to avoid wearing the same pair of shoes two days in a row. If the foot becomes red or warm or painful, it may suggest you have an infection. See your doctor urgently. I hope this has been of assistance. Dr Shehna Raghoonanan READ MORE
