Our Practitioner

Functional Medicine is based on the understanding that all the ‘systems’ of the body are inter-related, including the digestive, hormonal, endocrine, neurological, detoxification, energy and immune systems, each one impacting the other. When it comes to health and ‘dis-ease’, understanding these complex connections in the body is the key to positive results. Sarah aims to identify, through a detailed first consultation, events in your life that might have contributed to a state of ill health or just feeling below par. This includes assessing pre-conception, childhood illnesses, long-term diet patterns, genetics, environmental exposures, sleep issues, medications, emotional and physical stressors, with the aim to rebalance and address the health issues you are facing. Laboratory tests are often suggested in order to achieve a more targeted approach to your programme. Our practitioner works with fully regulated laboratories, with state of the art testing.

What is the Process?

Sarah’s approach is to meet with you and understand your needs through careful questioning and research. Having worked in the corporate world for many years before re-training, she is very much a realist and is aware that most of us lead busy lives, which are often shaped by deeply rooted habits. Together, you will explore your key concerns, issues or goals.

First Consultation

Up to 75 minutes
Clients are required to complete a health questionnaire prior to the consultation. Sarah will give you feedback at the end of the consultation about how you can work together and any functional laboratory tests she feels maybe appropriate. Tests are not always necessary, however they allow for a more targeted approach to your programme.

Following the consultation Sarah will complete a further detailed analysis, taking into account your priorities and will compile an individually tailored programme, which will be sent onto you by email. This may include some supplements. Please be aware the initial cost includes not only the time spent together in the consultation but also the time spent writing up your detailed programme, your food plan, handouts, ordering of test kits.

Follow Up Consultations

Up to 60 minutes
It is important to have at least one follow-up session with our Nutritional Therapist. This may entail discussing any test results or health programmes you have already started. Every client is unique – therefore Sarah may need to change your programme as you progress. Please be aware the follow up cost includes not only the time spent together in the consultation but also the time spent amending your programme, interpretation of results, handouts and ordering any further test kits.

Sarah offers complimentary 15 minute calls to discuss any concerns you may have or queries before booking your appointment. Please ask reception for more details about this.

They have looked after our family for a few years now and I would never go anywhere else. The key difference in my experience with Levitas and other GP surgeries is that they strive to fight the cause rather than cover up the symptoms. They are not cheap, but if you have any sort of chronic medical issue - you won't find a better service or treatment plan. They are available 7 days a week, 12 hours a day (a god send if you have young kids)! - you rarely if ever have to wait for an appointment and the quality of care is second to none. I could not recommend a clinic more highly than Levitas. ★★★★★ ★★★★★ I’ve been a member for over ten years and the service has been first class.

Top marks! ★★★★★ I found the clinic online after my despair of being ill for 3 weeks and my local GP insisted it was a viral thing and nothing they could do.The Dr at Levitas clinic examined me and told me I had a chest infestation which needed to be treated immediately.I felt relieved that I finally got a doctor to thoroughly examine me and listen to me.The service is not cheap. But when it comes to your health, it’s a cost I am willing to justify than suffer for weeks. ★★★★★ Such a wonderful clinic, I have lived with chronic pain and inflammation for many many years.

Manny was very comforting, professional and helpful. Will definitely return in the future! ★★★★★ An amazing surgery. Dedicated friendly staff and doctors. ★★★★★ Me and my wife have been members for a few years now. It makes such a difference to have some quality time with a GP in person, rather than feeling rushed or having to put up with a telephone-only appointment on the NHS. The premises are smart and clean and you can always get through on the phone.

The staff here are the epitome of friendliness, greeting every patient with a smile that instantly puts you at ease. It's clear that this is more than just a job for them; they truly care about the well-being of everyone who walks through their doors.In my experience, the doctors at Levitas Clinic are unparalleled in their expertise and knowledge. Each consultation is thorough, with doctors taking the time to understand my concerns and provide comprehensive advice and treatment. They don't just treat symptoms; they look at the whole picture, ensuring that you leave feeling better not just physically, but mentally and emotionally as well.A special mention must be made of Seema, whose lovely demeanour is a highlight of the Levitas experience. She embodies the clinic's ethos of compassionate care, making each patient feel valued and heard. Her approach is not just professional but also deeply empathetic, making each visit a truly comforting experience.Lastly, the little things matter too. The waiting area is a calm oasis (with a fish tank to rival the Maldives), and the coffee is always fresh, ensuring that the short wait is as pleasant as the treatment. It's rare to find a place that makes medical visits something to look forward to, but Levitas Clinic does just that.In summary, if you're seeking medical care that goes above and beyond, Levitas Clinic is the place to go. Their combination of professional expertise, genuine care, and a comfortable environment makes every visit a positively memorable one. ★★★★★ Super care, attentive and available when you need. ★★★★★ ★★★★★ I cannot recommend the team at the Levitas clinic highly enough; their skill and friendly professionalism is first class. They care and it shows. ★★★★★ I have been a patient at the Levitas clinics from the early days and cannot fault their warm and welcome professionalism and their holistic approach. They all treat me as an individual and nothing seems to be too much trouble. I see them for everything medically related now. The BHRT (bioidentical hormones) treatment regime has been miraculous for my general well-being and has taken the edge off the more unwelcome aspects of the menopause for me and I am extremely pleased to be able to have a routine tailored to my body rather than a one style suits all treatment. Friends of a certain age (this includes male too) who have also had it are similarly delighted and we all get chase ups from them for regular follow ups and ongoing treatment appraisal and adjustments. My friends comment on how good I look, hence them wanting to give it a go; my hairdresser of nearly 30 years has said my thinning hair has improved and my beautician of 15+ years still tells me I have a lovely skin tone!I have also had success with the sound vibration treatment on arthritic joint pain.I am happy I found them and, although its a drive for me, I have always had a good choice of parking spaces - another big plus. ★★★★★ All the staff always go above and beyond with their care and time. I feel they have got to know us as a family and provide all round care for us with incredible understanding and guidance. We are very grateful for them! ★★★★★ Excellent experience with all the doctors here. They take as much time with you and don’t mind going through multiple concerns and problems in one appointment. Very thoughtful and professional too. ★★★★★ I recently underwent a medical treatment, and I am pleased to share my positive experience. The healthcare professionals were exceptionally knowledgeable and attentive, ensuring I felt comfortable throughout the process. The facility was well-maintained, and the staff demonstrated a high level of professionalism and compassion. I appreciate the personalized care I received, making the entire treatment journey smoother. Overall, it was a reassuring and effective medical experience that exceeded my expectations. ★★★★★ ★★★★★ Staff are always so friendly and helpful. Thank you for being so caring and gentle towards my little one and to me a very sleep deprived/worried mum. ★★★★★ Perfect appointment, diagnosis and meds all within 15 mins.

I had given up all hope until I finally found the clinic for me .All the doctors are top of their field and the staff are so welcoming , compassionate and kind.The team went way beyond their job discriptions..
