Wimbledon Hair Clinic
A dedicated hair loss clinic at Nuffield Health Parkside, for every type of hair loss, at every age.
Built Around What Patients Actually Need
Based on my experience with patients, and listening to their journeys, I created the Wimbledon Hair Clinic to assess all the possible needs of patients with hair loss.
For every kind of hair loss
The clinic is for anybody with a hair loss problem, across the board and at any age.
Honest answers
The correct solutions, honest answers and the correct treatment. There has never been a recognised place for people to go, and that is what this clinic was built to be.
A full hospital behind it
Being inside Nuffield Health Parkside means that where a referral to another specialty is needed, it can happen within the same facility.

Beth Marshall
Beth Marshall is a Clinical Nurse Specialist with fifteen years of nursing experience. She began her career in a surgical emergency unit, where she developed a passion for emergency care, and went on to one of London’s busiest A&E departments, where she progressed to Senior Sister. More recently she has found her passion in dermatology, and in particular inflammatory skin conditions including acne, psoriasis and eczema. She has completed her non-medical prescribing and is a strong believer in the importance of lifestyle medicine. She knows how debilitating inflammatory skin conditions can be, and the impact they have on a patient’s physical and mental health, so her priority is always evidence-based care that delivers the best patient-centred outcomes.
