Dr. Lucy Matthews completed all medical and general practitioner training in the UK and has worked in the Turks and Caicos Islands for almost 10 years.
“Following completion of my training, I wanted to be able to provide more holistic, detailed and patient centered medical care than the NHS allowed.
Working at Grace Bay Medical Centre allows me to provide urgent care to patients along with general health, cancer screening, disease prevention and wellness all within one visit. My focus on preventative medicine has developed with further studies into nutrition to support this.
At medical school I discovered I was well-suited to problem solving and found that general practice provided the greatest breadth of medical issues. I aspire to excel in clinical medicine and enjoy the challenges and variety family practice brings. Great, evidence-based care of my patients is my focus, and I enjoy the variety my career and work in the Islands has brought me.”
