Professional statement

Ms Monica Fawzy is a renowned consultant plastic surgeon with a private practice based in central London. She specialises in facial rejuvenation procedures (such as face/necklift, facial fat transfer, blepharoplasty, lip lift) and facial reanimation for facial paralysis.  

Her professional journey includes teaching anatomy at the University of Oxford and Guys Hospital, as well as training in various surgical specialties. She became a member of the Royal College of Surgeons in 2006 and pursued specialised training in Plastic Surgery in the East of England. This was complemented by fellowships in craniofacial and aesthetic surgery in Paris, followed by microsurgery in Cambridge. After completing formal training in 2015 and joining the GMC Specialist Register in Plastic Surgery, she expanded her expertise through visits to centres in Europe and the USA.

Monica currently practices reconstructive surgery within the NHS, focusing on head and neck microsurgical reconstruction and facial palsy. She has held leadership roles in patient safety and governance, serving as deputy program director and educational director of the post-graduate training scheme for plastic surgeons in the East of England. Additionally, she authored a popular textbook for trainee plastic surgeons and joined the national team of examiners for the final plastic surgery FRCS (Plast) exam.

Passionate about extending training opportunities globally, Monica has collaborated with surgical charities. She has been actively involved in the leadership team of organisations such as the British Association of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons (BAPRAS), the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS), and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). 

In her private practice, Monica primarily focuses on facial rejuvenation surgery and facial palsy reanimation. Offering a comprehensive range of procedures, she tailors surgical plans to achieve natural results, considering each patient's unique facial identity. Her approach involves thorough consultations, during which she listens to concerns and assesses medical, personal, and work circumstances. Surgery is recommended only when she is certain that the patient is a suitable candidate, both physically and psychologically, ensuring they are fully informed about the associated benefits and risks. This commitment to personalised care underscores her dedication to preserving each individual's distinct facial identity.

Professional statement

Dr Jeremy Slaughter is a chartered clinical psychologist and occupational psychologist practising in the London area. Although Dr Slaughter works with a large array of different conditions, he specialises in integrative therapy, depression, work-life balance, clinic psychology, stress, and anxiety. Due to the current pandemic, he is accepting online consultations and appointments only.

Starting with a degree in another field, Dr Slaughter successfully received his qualification for psychology in 2000. His journey to discovering clinical psychology has proven that it is his passion and provided a real-life experience that he uses today to help his patients. Dr Slaughter experienced first-hand what it is like to try endless methods to help the self and try to find the right path for your journey. This became the inspiration to follow clinical psychology to help not only himself, but eventually others who have similar experiences - but now with a trained eye and mind. 

Along this journey with clinical psychology, Dr Slaughter found that a lot of roles in psychology follow one of 12 factions and generally tend to behave as companions and trackers who only listen. He wanted to change this and really emphasise bringing it all together with integrated therapy, as well as being a participant in his patients' journeys. Dr Slaughter does this by taking the patient out of the "therapy circle" going round and round and creating a plan to have a direction that brings the patient where they want to as efficiently as possible.

Dr Slaughter developed a software to assist with this surveyor role called PsycNav™ (satnav for psychology). This programme evolved sessions beyond note-taking, where Dr Slaughter could now create a map of each patient's life, and in turn help the patients to better themselves. He has found that most problems and issues are actually from many levels of personal beliefs and habits, as opposed to a single treatment being the answer. Dr Slaughter works with a complete solution in this manner.

Dr Slaughter views his surveyor role as not only psychological therapy, but as a provider for insight into the structure of the difficulties his patients face. Ultimately, they can find solutions beyond therapy in other modalities to complement it. In this way, there will be more skill in recognising and formulating difficulties; and recognising faced difficulties and resolving them will be quicker now and in the future.
