Growing up in Egypt and Northern Ireland and being married to a German National means that she is multilingual. She is fluent in Arabic and German and sometimes reverts to an Irish accent!

Yvonne’s working days are Tuesdays and some Saturdays at the Nuffield Hospital in Cambridge and Thursdays at our branch surgery in Sawston. If you can’t make it to any of these, she runs a remote clinic on Wednesday evenings and is willing to extend surgeries, so please email us.
