Professional statement
Miss Kate Maclaran is a leading consultant gynaecologist and certified subspecialist in reproductive medicine and surgery based in London. With specialist interest in all aspects of fertility and gynaecology treatments, she is an expert in in vitro fertilisation, egg freezing, female infertility, menopause and polycystic ovary syndrome.
In addition, included in her areas of expertise are also complex fertility surgery procedures, such as operative hysteroscopy, operative laparoscopy and open myomectomy. Miss Maclaran currently sees patients at the renowned The Fertility Centre at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital.
Miss Maclaran qualified from Edinburgh University in 2005 and completed her postgraduate training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology in the North West London Deanery rotation. After accomplishing subspeciality training in reproductive medicine at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, she went on to obtain an MD research degree from Imperial College London, where she analysed the safety of testosterone replacement therapy in women. She maintains an active role in this research to this day from her position as investigator in various clinical trials, and has extensive experience regularly presenting at national and international meetings.
Most of all, Miss Maclaran is passionate about the provision of patient support and the growing visibility of women’s health issues. Moved by this desire, she leads a fertility group at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, and is the Trustee (and past Chair) of the Daisy Network, a charity for women with premature ovarian insufficiency to turn to when needed.
