Claire believes that the perimenopause and menopause are opportunities to take back control of our health.  Dr. Phipps recognises that adverse life experiences may resurface during menopause, as a woman's nervous system responds to hormonal fluctuations. This insight informs her commitment to delivering a trauma-aware approach to care, ensuring that women receive the support and understanding they need during this transformative phase of life. Claire is deeply committed to advancing access to evidence-based menopause care for underserved and underrepresented populations. Her areas of special interest include providing education around genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) treatment and within this supporting survivors of female genital mutilation (FGM). Ensuring equitable menopause care for individuals who struggle to access affordable, high-quality support forms a large part of her work.
