About me

Dr Karen Joash graduated from Imperial College, London University and successfully obtained a place on the London Postgraduate obstetrics and gynaecology training programme and has worked at most of the prestigious London teaching hospitals.
She is an obstetrician and gynaecologist who is passionate about delivering high quality care to all women. Her notable flair is in empathy, communication and personal approach to her patients.
She has been working in obstetrics and gynaecology for over ten years and is well known for being a skilled labour ward practitioner. Her aim is to help women achieve the type of delivery which is tailored to their wants and needs. With her holistic approach and knowledge of both low risk and high risk conditions she is able to provide this for all women.
Her maternal medicine knowledge has been obtained from two of the best insitutions, St Thomas hospital and Queen Charlotte’s and Chelsea Hospital, where she now works.
She provides a comprehensive service in gynaecology with expertise in early pregnancy and ambulatory gynaecology. She understands the busy schedules women have being able to fit most procedures into the office setting if required.
In her NHS role she is the lead for postnatal care understanding the birth journey doesn’t stop at delivery, but support in this period can be crucial. She is also the lead for maternity guidelines at Imperial Healthcare NHS Trust and is principled on the importance of safe practice. Dr Joash also leads on outpatient hysteroscopy and performs early pregnancy scans at Queen Charlottes Hospital.
Her passion for excellence in care led to her appointment as Training Programme Director for doctors in postgraduate training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology in North West London. In addition she is deputy head of school for London school of postgraduate obstetrics and gynaecology; and sits on the education quality assurance board at the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists.
To be able to provide sufficient time to her maternity clients, the numbers of patients are capped, so book early to avoid disappointment.
