Dr Lucy Lord MBE Featured in Tatler’s Good Doctors Guide

Dr Lucy Lord MBE, founder of Central Health and one of the most influential figures in private women’s healthcare, has been recognised in Tatler’s Good Doctors Guide. Her inclusion in the guide reflects the exceptional standard of care and vision to redefine healthcare for women, that continues to underpin both Central Health Hong Kong and its sister clinic, Central Health London (CHL).

A Founder Whose Influence Shapes Two Leading Clinics Across the World

Dr Lucy Lord has spent more than three decades redefining how private healthcare is delivered. Her vision was clear from the outset: create a truly integrated, patient-centred model built to deliver the safest levels of care.  From this vision, grew a model where general practice, women’s health, family medicine and mental health services all sit seamlessly under one roof.  Central Health Hong Kong, which she founded over 30 years ago, became one of the region’s most trusted family healthcare providers.

That same model now informs Central Health London, based in Marylebone. While Lucy has reduced her hospital work she still sees patients at 23 Devonshire place and the clinic’s philosophy, clinical governance and approach to patient care remain firmly rooted in her values;  time with patients, clear communication, continuity of care and collaborative working across specialties.

Tatler Recognition That Speaks to a Broader Legacy

Tatler’s Good Doctors Guide is widely regarded as one of the most authoritative lists of private clinicians. Dr Lord’s continued recognition highlights the depth of expertise, leadership and clinical influence she has brought to women’s healthcare throughout her career.

Lucy's appearance in the guide is not simply is an acknowledgment of the broader healthcare ecosystem she has created; one that now extends to CHL, where her standards and ethos are embedded into daily practice.

Central Health London: Delivering Clinical Excellence 

Central Health London is built on the same principles that made its Hong Kong counterpart so respected. The clinic provides integrated, multidisciplinary care across:

• General Practice

• Obstetrics

• Gynaecology

• Paediatrics

• Psychiatry and Psychology

Patients benefit from continuity, joined-up decision-making and a team of consultants and GPs who share a common clinical language — much of which stems from Dr Lord’s longstanding leadership.

A Well-Deserved Honour Reflecting a Lasting Impact

Dr Lucy Lord’s feature in Tatler’s Good Doctors Guide stands as a testament to her decades of service, clinical leadership and the high standards she continues to uphold across Central Health. It is also a reflection of what makes Central Health London distinctive: a modern, multidisciplinary clinic informed by one of the most respected figures in private women’s healthcare.

For patients seeking exceptional, joined-up women’s and family health services in London, Central Health London represents the continuation of a legacy built on clinical excellence.
