Dr. Winnie Uchendu

Dr. Winnie Uchendu is a British-trained consultant in family medicine and qualified health coach based at Mediclinic's Care Collaboration Centre in Abu Dhabi. She completed her medical degree at the University of Bristol and holds a psychology degree from King's College London, giving her unique insight into how behaviour and mental health influence physical wellbeing. She is a member of the Royal College of General Practitioners (MRCGP) and holds formal training certification in general practice from the UK.

Dr. Uchendu provides comprehensive primary care for adults and families, managing everything from acute illnesses such as coughs and infections to long-term conditions like diabetes and heart disease. She has additional training in clinical dermatology and offers telehealth consultations. Her particular strength is helping patients understand the root causes of health problems and make sustainable lifestyle changes — drawing on her psychology background to support behaviour change around nutrition, sleep, exercise, stress management, and weight.

She places equal emphasis on prevention and treating existing illness, working collaboratively with each patient to develop practical strategies that lead to lasting health improvements. She is a good fit if you want a family doctor who takes time to understand how your life circumstances affect your health, or if you are interested in preventive medicine and lifestyle-based approaches to managing chronic conditions.
