Internationally acclaimed expert Professor Lesley Regan is a mother of twins and head of the department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at St Mary's Hospital, the first woman in England to hold this post. She works with a clearly defined philosophy: a woman who is well informed about her pregnancy will be able to make confident choices. Professor Regan has presented several TV programmes, including Professor Regan's Medicine Cabinet on BBC2, which scrutinized the scientific claims of over-the-counter remedies and beauty treatments, and she contributes regularly to radio programmes and to magazines. She was listed in Good Housekeeping magazine as one of Britain's most influential women.
