Sarah has more than 30 years’ experience in the NHS, and over 26 years as a GP — and is currently practising in a busy west London surgery.
She is probably best known as health and medical reporter for The One Show, on BBC1, but Sarah is also a regular guest on The Jeremy Vine Show and has a plethora of roles including clinical consultant for health website Patient UK, medical adviser to Drinkaware andhas chaired the Health Care Committee of HEART UK, the cholesterol charity.
