BMBS, BSc, MRCGP
Meet Jack, Specialist Doctor
My name is Dr Jack Douthwaite.
My patients tend to just call me Dr Jack or Jack – I tend to be informal, as I like to truly understand my patients and feel this can only happen in an environment where the patient is relaxed and comfortable.
I am a medical doctor and hold full GMC registration. I am a qualified GP & secondary care higher speciality trainee in rehabilitation and musculoskeletal medicine. I am included on the English medical performers list.
My primary medical qualification is Bachelor of Medicine & Surgery (BMBS) and I hold membership of the Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP). I completed my speciality training in the Yorkshire region and passed my membership examinations at first attempt. I learnt from some of the best trainers in the region and two of these were highly experienced in women’s and sexual health.
Hormone Health + General Wellbeing Services
My role within the clinic will focus primarily on hormone health. I have a specialist interest in hormones and the intricate role they play within the human body. I keep up to date with all advancements in research within this area and prescribe according to the latest guidelines and evidence base available.
I am a member of the British & European Society of Sexual Medicine (BSSM/ESSM) and a member of the British Menopause Society (BMS). I am also undertaking further post graduate education in endocrinology and the medical management of menopause.
As part of this service I can offer:
- General health screening;
- Blood sample testing;
- Urine/stool sample testing;
- Private hormone-based prescriptions: these includes testosterone/oestrogen/
progesterone, as clinically indicated - Lifestyle advice;
- Onward referral to specialities/ imaging requests.
My approach
I do not have a one size fits all approach for my patients.
I tailor care individually to each persons needs. After our initial 45-minute consultation together, which will include a thorough medical history and clinical examination as appropriate, we will work together to formulate an effective and realistic management plan. This may include blood testing/other tests, a private prescription for medication or further consultations as needed. I can also refer to other specialists and write referrals for imaging like X-ray/CT/MRI if deemed appropriate.
After we have gathered all of the necessary information, we will work together to create an individualised management plan to work towards your health goals.
I will not recommend blood testing or further testing if not needed. I do this to minimise the impact on yourself both physically, mentally and financially.
Disclaimer
Please note, this is NOT a general practice service. I do not manage acute medical illness nor do I manage complex chronic health issues within this clinic, as this is not a service I can legally provide from this location. The service I provide is focussed around hormonal and general health only and I refuse the right to decline consultations if I feel I cannot offer you the care appropriate for your needs. I will of course, always direct you to the care I feel appropriate if clinically appropriate- this may be your own GP or if more urgent, an urgent primary or secondary care environment like urgent care or A+E.
My services are provided individually by me as a GMC registered GP.
I am not employed by Life and Lemons. I simply use their consulting rooms on an ad hoc basis to provide services. I hold full unlimited medical indemnity cover and work within the limitations of my CQC exemptions that I hold due to my current employment and professional status. I work within the limitations of registration and work to current national and international guidelines and follow best medical practices at all times. I only prescribe medications I am comfortable to prescribe and will not initiate specialist medications outside of my remit.
Book your consultation
All initial consultations with new patients will be 45 minutes in length. This gives us the time to really understand your health needs moving forwards and allows us to put a thorough plan in place.
Follow up appointments are 45 or 30 minutes per consultation.
I look forward to working together to achieve a healthier, happier you.
