Dr Susanna Unsworth

Who Dr Susanna Unsworth is

Dr Susanna Unsworth is a GP-trained menopause and women's health specialist based in Cambridge. She trained at Pembroke College, University of Cambridge, qualified in 2005, and joined the GP register in 2010 after training in the East of England Deanery. She holds a Postgraduate Diploma in Community Gynaecology from the University of Bradford, an Advanced Certificate in Menopause Care from the FSRH, and is listed on the British Menopause Society Register of Menopause Specialists. She founded Cambridge Women's Health in 2020 to provide specialist, evidence-based menopause care, and concurrently works as a Specialist Breast Physician at the Cambridge Breast Unit, Addenbrooke's Hospital, and as a Community Gynaecology Specialist GP in Essex. She has published on menopause after breast cancer in The Lancet Obstetrics, Gynaecology & Women's Health, and argues publicly that women with overstretched NHS access to menopause services — including those affected by cancer treatment — deserve expanded specialist provision.

What Dr Susanna Unsworth has said

• “I think often they are very unprepared for it, as they are not expecting this to happen. We do need to think about the health implications for these women.”

• “I am definitely seeing this more. Women often ask me before their appointment if they need blood tests done first. My answer is almost always no but increasingly, they turn up with pages of results they have organised themselves.”
