Dr Cathrow has gone on to gain an MSc in Dermatology at Cardiff University and counts skin and skin health as one of her areas of special interest. She holds a Diploma in Aesthetic Injectables and is registered with the JCCP. She offers aesthetic treatments at YourGP and is always happy to discuss any concerns you may have, utilising her solution-focused approach to achieve your aesthetic goals.
Dr Cathrow is also a registered signatory for the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), authorised to certify medical documents and complete medical forms for visa, travel, and official purposes.
Other roles include Honorary Clinical Senior Lecturer for the University of Edinburgh Medical School, where she provides intensive teaching for final year medical students. She also sits on the South East Scotland RCGP Faculty Board and is the Education Lead for the Faculty.
In addition to her passion for working as a GP, Dr Cathrow loves time away with the family, walks along the coast and time out with a good book.
If you’re keen to make an appointment with Dr Cathrow, please be aware she is in clinic every other Thursday and Saturday, so advance booking is often required.
Back to all staffAfter being written off by chronic pain team and their physios, and losing faith in the physio discipline, I had no expectations from Peter. I am amazed at what he has done for me. Although I still have my pain I, at last, understand what’s happening, why and how to best manage it. Peter has given me the control back. I recommend Peter to anyone I meet who needs a good physio.
