About The Practical Doctor

My name is Dr Rachel Hall.  I have been a doctor for 13 years and have worked as a GP for the last 9 years.  I graduated in medicine from Oxford in 2011 and prior to this I studied biochemistry at Cambridge reading genetics, molecular medicine and nutrition.  I am a certified partner of the National Weight Loss Management Program and certified with the International Board of Lifestyle medicine and British Society of Lifestyle Medicine.

I work as a  GP Partner in Cheshire and in my ‘spare time’ I am a mum, runner and health enthusiast.  I understand how busy life can be.  It can be difficult to stay healthy and happy with all that life can throw at you.  Whatever your needs, be it weight loss, fitness goals or more general improvements to your health and wellbeing, The Practical Doctor is here to help.

I hope you find what you are looking for and we can work together to build a healthier, happier you.
