Joy Parker-Fleming (Senior Patient Advisor)
Joy has been actively involved in the field of aesthetic plastic surgery, since 1989. She has extensive knowledge of the discipline having worked in surgical units across the UK and with a variety of surgeons globally.
Her extensive and varied experience ranges from the delivery of patient care, accompanying patients to theatre, observing procedures and patient recovery, essentially meeting the needs of the patient until they were fully discharged. This care and support has generally continued long after the discharge from the surgeon's care, greatly enhancing the patient's recovery and level of satisfaction.
Her advice is regularly sought after from the national press to TV companies researching for Cosmetic/Plastic surgery programmes. Joy has been an invited guest on numerous radio stations including, BBC Radio 2, Five Live, BBC Radio Scotland, with appearances on Channel 5, BBC Look North, the Kirsty Show, NBC, CNN, 5 Live news, and hosted her own series of one hour phone-in programmes on London's Spectrum radio.
