Dr Shilpa Dave GP and staff were amazing and went above and beyond to help my daughter secure an appointment she urgently needed for study abroad. Another family…


Dr Shilpa Davé
I have spent over 25 years in medicine, working as both an NHS and private GP, and my passion has always been to help people achieve not just good health, but lasting vitality. Over the years, I have trained extensively in Functional and Lifestyle Medicine, becoming one of only a very small number of UK doctors to complete the rigorous Institute of Functional Medicine Certification, a three-year programme. I have also undertaken specialist training in nutrigenomics and metabolic health, which allows me to use cutting-edge science on genetics, metabolism, and nutrition to create highly personalised treatment plans.
My focus areas include menopause, hormone balance, gut health, nutrition, burnout, and lifestyle transformation. I believe the most effective care combines the strengths of conventional medicine with functional medicine principles, addressing not only symptoms but also the root causes of illness.
I founded Dr. Shilpa Davé Health, a CQC-registered boutique private GP practice in the heart of Teddington, to put this vision into practice. Our clinic has been inspected twice with glowing CQC reports, reflecting our commitment to safety, quality, and excellence. I have built a hand-picked multidisciplinary team of experts who complement my skills, and together we bring over 113 years of combined experience in nutrition, personal training, sleep medicine, gut health, and holistic wellbeing. Even the lighting, décor, and atmosphere of the surgery have been designed to create a calming environment that supports recovery and balance.

To make this possible, I developed a unique 30-minute consultation model and named GP system, rare in London, which ensures my patients receive unhurried, personalised care and continuity with the same doctor. All of my patients also benefit from true multidisciplinary care, as our team holds regular case meetings to discuss complex patients together, ensuring that every aspect of health—physical, emotional, nutritional, hormonal, and lifestyle—is addressed in a coordinated and truly holistic way.
My mission is to help people not only stay healthy, but to thrive—to rediscover balance, energy, and purpose in their everyday lives, their work, and their relationships. By combining conventional medicine, functional medicine, nutrigenomics, and lifestyle science, I aim to deliver bespoke care that transforms health from the inside out.
Care, Listen, Act, Improve
My approach is guided by four simple values: Care, Listen, Act, Improve. I care deeply about every patient I see, I take the time to listen and understand their story, I act decisively to resolve problems, and I constantly look for ways to improve outcomes through evidence-based medicine, lifestyle science, and functional approaches.
