Dr Shobana Sreetharan brings a distinguished clinical background to her practice, having spent nearly two decades navigating the diverse landscapes of primary care across both the United Kingdom and Australia. She qualified with merit from Imperial College London in 2005 and achieved her membership of the Royal College of General Practitioners in 2010. Her career is a blend of leadership and direct patient care, having served as a GP Principal for many years while also working in high-intensity settings like Melbourne Airport, where she managed everything from travel health to acute medical emergencies. This global perspective allows her to approach every patient with a calm, adaptable, and deeply seasoned medical intuition.
What defines Dr Sreetharan’s current practice is her dedication to what she calls portfolio medicine—a way of working that combines high-level specialist knowledge with general practice. She holds a postgraduate diploma in practical dermatology with distinction, making her an expert voice for patients seeking help with complex skin conditions. She is also at the forefront of the lifestyle medicine movement, focusing on how nutrition, sleep, and stress management can act as powerful tools for long-term health. For Dr Sreetharan, the goal isn't just to manage a condition, but to look at the entire lifestyle of the individual to create a path toward genuine, holistic wellness.
Beyond her work in the consultation room, she is a passionate educator who has spent over eight years mentoring the next generation of doctors as a GP Trainer and medical student supervisor at King’s College. She also serves as an experienced GP appraiser, ensuring high standards across the profession. When she isn't teaching or seeing patients, she is often found engaged in the creative arts; she is a skilled chocolatier who crafts bespoke chocolate from bean to bar and is an accomplished musician who plays both the Veena and the piano. This blend of scientific precision and creative empathy makes her a doctor who truly understands the human side of healthcare.
