Introducing Dr Caroline Butler

GP, FEMALE METABOLIC HEALTH SPECIALIST, LIFESTYLE PHYSICIAN, TRANSFORMATIONAL HEALTH & NUTRITION COACH

After almost two decades working within the NHS, alongside extensive training in nutrition, coaching, and lifestyle medicine, I came to a powerful realisation:

The greatest gift I can offer my patients is the knowledge and confidence to take control of their own health — through optimising nutrition, movement, stress, and sleep.

While it remains a privilege to care for patients during their most difficult moments, the reality is that around 70% of GP consultations relate to symptoms of preventable disease. Too often, the medications prescribed to offer relief act merely as sticking plasters, covering cracks rather than addressing the true underlying causes — most commonly insulin resistance and chronic inflammation.

Today’s weight loss medications, such as Wegovy and Mounjaro, offer a ground-breaking tool to tackle weight gain and insulin resistance. However, the evidence is clear: without meaningful lifestyle change, weight regain is likely and ongoing medication may be required indefinitely. Studies show that combining sustainable lifestyle changes with these medications leads to better, longer-lasting results, often enabling lower, less costly doses — and in some cases, the possibility of discontinuation altogether.

Similarly, HRT offers significant relief from menopause symptoms — but when paired with lifestyle improvements, it becomes part of a comprehensive, transformative solution for long-term health.

We live in a world full of "shoulds" — yet advice often feels overwhelming, impersonal, and ineffective. That’s because there is no one-size-fits-all solution. I work with you to discover what works best for your body, your preferences, and your life — creating a personalised, sustainable plan that empowers you to succeed.

If you’ve witnessed a loved one struggle with diabetes, heart disease, cancer, or dementia, you’ll know how urgent it feels to reverse these risks. Optimising your metabolic health is one of the most powerful ways to protect your future — and perimenopause is the perfect time to start, a decade before these conditions typically emerge.

When I turned 40, I chose to prioritise my own health. Despite a lifelong battle with weight and a strong family history of diabetes, I applied the same evidence-based strategies I now teach — improving my nutrition, fitness, energy, mood, sleep, and confidence. I have never looked back.

Now, I help women who feel disempowered by perimenopause regain control — and transform this pivotal phase into a springboard for lasting health. Many women come to me desperate for help with weight management... but they leave with so much more.

NOW IT'S YOUR TURN.
