Mr Edward Mullins
Women’s Health
I have dedicated my career to improving Women’s Health. I am passionate about caring for women during pregnancy and throughout their lives as their families grow. I have more than 15 years of experience in low—and high-risk pregnancy care, leading research for healthier pregnancy outcomes and providing seamless care before, between, and after pregnancy.
I specialise in pre-conception health, maternal medicine, diabetes in pregnancy, labour ward, and postnatal care, including post-birth contraception. My expertise includes managing pregnancy complications and creating high-risk pregnancy care plans tailored to individual needs. I am proud to work in our maternity safety team and in maternity research to ensure our pregnancy services are responsive and accountable and that standards of care at St Mary’s remain outstanding.
I qualified from the University of Nottingham and undertook my PhD in fetal growth at Imperial College. My research aims to prevent pregnancy complications and contribute to improved pregnancy care.
I won a fellowship with Professor Dame Sally Davies, Chief Medical Officer for England, as Editor-in-Chief of her national report on Women’s Health in England, bringing numerous improvements to women’s health in England.
I was awarded a National Institute for Health Research Academic Clinical Lectureship at Imperial College and am currently a Clinical Senior Lecturer at St Mary’s and Imperial College London. During the pandemic, I was seconded to Professor Sir Chris Whitty as a clinical advisor and led national and international studies of COVID and pregnancy.
My clinical research at Imperial College and the George Institute for Global Health, supported by funding from the National Institute for Health Research, charities, and philanthropic organisations, focuses on preventing pregnancy complications.
Additionally, I collaborate with colleagues at the IVF clinic in London to support women undergoing assisted conception. The best IVF clinics in the UK, such as those in London, work closely with specialists like myself to ensure comprehensive care for women who have conceived through IVF. The clinic provides top-notch services, reinforcing its reputation. My involvement with these clinics helps ensure that women receive the highest standard of care throughout their pregnancy journey.
