Dr Fatma Seda Soylu is a GMC-registered doctor with more than 25 years of experience in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, originally trained in Turkey and practising in the UK since 2019. At the clinic she provides women's health consultations, pregnancy and pre-pregnancy support, menopause care, contraception, and pelvic and obstetric ultrasound (including 3D/4D scans). She speaks English and Turkish.
Dr Soylu trained in medicine at Hacettepe University in Turkey and completed her specialist training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Tepecik Education and Research Hospital. She worked as a consultant in OB-GYN across several hospitals in Turkey before relocating to the UK and gaining GMC registration in 2019.
In the UK she practises as a GMC-registered Medical Practitioner with experience in Gynaecology — the appropriate registration for her current UK practice. She is not on the UK Specialist Register for Obstetrics and Gynaecology, but brings the full breadth of clinical experience from her specialist career in Turkey to her UK consultations.
Her work at the clinic covers general women's health, fertility consultations and pre-conception advice, pregnancy and perinatology, menopause and HRT, contraception and sexual health, and pelvic ultrasound scanning including 3D/4D obstetric imaging. She is also a member of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG) and other relevant professional bodies.

Services they cover
Where to find Dr Fatma Seda Soylu in the clinic.
Services Dr Fatma Seda regularly delivers. Each links to a dedicated page with scope, what's included, and how to book.
Most consultations are 30–45 minutes for an initial assessment, shorter for follow-ups. You’ll be seen in a single appointment, with bloods, ECG or other tests (if needed) usually done on the same visit.
Follow-up
Results from on-site tests are typically back within 24–48 hours via TDL (our laboratory partner). Follow-up consultations are scheduled to discuss results, refine treatment, or make onward referrals. With your consent, we write to your NHS GP so your record stays joined-up.
Onward referrals
Where your case needs a different specialist, Dr Fatma Seda refers to a panel of trusted clinicians across London — matched to your specific need. We don’t take commission or referral fees from any external provider.
