A doctor-led medication review that applies the same clinical reasoning used to start a drug — to decide whether to continue, reduce, or stop it.

People accumulate medications during stressful years — illness, weight gain, poor sleep, menopause, a difficult season — and then never get a clean reassessment once things improve.
The GP who added the medication has moved on. The specialist who initiated it discharged you. The repeat prescription just keeps printing.
This review exists for the patient who wants one doctor to look at the whole picture.
Deprescribing is the careful reduction or stopping of medications that may no longer be helping — or may now be causing more harm than benefit.
It is not anti-medicine. It is medicine done properly.
When a medication is started, a clinical decision is made: the benefit outweighs the risk for this patient, now. That calculation changes over time. Weight changes. Blood pressure changes. Lifestyle changes. A medication started under one set of circumstances may no longer be indicated under different ones.
The review asks the same question that should have been asked at every repeat: is this still the right decision for this patient today?
"Sometimes the outcome is continue — with reassurance and a clear reason. Sometimes it is adjust, reduce, or stop — with a plan and monitoring. The decision is always personalised and safety-led."

Book a review →Whole-list review — interactions, duplication, and a staged plan for the full regimen. The right starting point if multiple medications are involved.
Book a review →Medication changes are individual. They require review, planning, monitoring, and follow-up. This is what that looks like.
History, current medications, relevant results, side effects, and what has changed since the prescription was first written.
Is the medication still indicated? What is the risk-benefit balance now? What does stopping, reducing, or continuing actually mean for you specifically?
A personalised taper plan — gradual, responsive, with clear monitoring points and decision rules for what to do if symptoms change.
Liaison with your GP or specialist where appropriate. Follow-up available to review whether the plan is holding as expected.
Medication changes should never be made abruptly without clinical supervision. Every plan is built around safety first.
Not a recommendation to look things up. A written, personalised, medically defensible plan.
Continue, adjust, reduce, or stop — with the clinical reasoning documented clearly.
Where deprescribing is appropriate — a specific, stepwise schedule with timeframes and decision points.
What to watch for, at what intervals, and what would justify changing the plan.
What to expect and what to do if withdrawal or rebound symptoms emerge.
A written summary to your GP where appropriate, keeping your care coordinated.
Clear markers for review and a pathway back if something changes.
"My job is to review the whole picture, then build a safe step-down plan you can actually follow."
Book a Medication ReviewMost private clinics are set up to prescribe. This one is set up to review. The commercial incentive points in a different direction — and that matters when the question is whether to stop a medication, not start one.
Dr Dan Reardon is an NHS A&E doctor. Frontline emergency medicine gives a particular view of what happens downstream when medication management goes wrong — polypharmacy, missed indications, undertreated withdrawal. That experience shapes every review.
Not ideological. Not anti-medication. Clinically serious about getting the decision right.
Fees include advance review of your history and medication list, clinical interpretation, and a clear written plan.
Full medication review, step-down plan where appropriate, monitoring strategy, and written plan.
