Dr Ayan Panja

Hello, I’m Ayan

I’ve always been interested in health, communicating it well and what makes us tick as human beings.

After dabbling in creative arts at medical school, I found myself working as a GP and TV and radio doctor in the noughties, on programmes including ‘Street Doctor’, ‘The Health Show’ and ‘Health Check’ for the BBC for around 10 years.

I started medical school in 1992 and have now worked as a doctor now for over 25 years. My main work now is what its has been from the early days – as a GP partner. I am lucky to be part of a multi-award winning practice and team. I am also a visiting lecturer at The University of Hertfordshire in public health.

A change in my own health in 2013 turned my focus to what is called ‘lifestyle medicine’ which looks at how we can leverage the factors in our everyday life to optimise our health. I am proud to be acknowledged for my work in this space having co-created the first lifestyle medicine course in the UK for healthcare professionals. I then wrote a book for the public to be able to use these methods for themselves called The Health Fix.

The Health Fix catalogues the journeys of many people as well as my own story, with a simple framework I have created that works for anyone, at whatever stage they are with their health. But don’t take my word for it – read the testimonials and Amazon reviews. The great thing is what the method generates for you is totally individual to you as the reader.

I also host a highly-rated podcast called ‘Saving Lives In Slow Motion’, combining gentle musings with elegant approaches to help you achieve maximal health.
