Dr Karen Joash 209 Great Portland Street, London W1W 5AH

"What a wonderful, talented professional, a true powerhouse in the obstetrics field! I do not usually leave reviews, but felt so lucky we met Dr karen Joash at the Portland who delivered our daughter in 2021. We feel blessed to have had her expert care and attention throughout our pregnancy. She genuinely cares and takes great interest in her mums and babies. I was always reluctant to have consultant level care, finding the pool of Doctors ‘clinical’ and somewhat emotionally detached. Dr Karen Joash on the other hand extended warmth and endless smiles, making our appointments a joy. She also educated me on pre and post natal care and I honestly believe my smooth pregnancy and delivery could not have happened without her. She is extremely attentive and knowledgeable and stands miles ahead of other consultants in the obstetrics field because of her ability to skilfully balance professional expertise with kindness and humility. Dr Karen Joash clearly loves and deeply cares for what she does. Warm hugs throughout, positive support and reassurance right up to the birth and beyond, Dr Karen gives women the attention they deserve during pregnancy and childbirth. Her positive energy is infectious and she is great company, even during labour! Cannot recommend her enough to expectant mums!"

"Dr Joash has delivered both of our children (2019 and 2021) and we can’t speak highly enough of her. We are grateful for the outstanding medical care we received and we have nothing but high praise for her. She is the best obstetrician we could have had! Karen have gone above and beyond all expectations, especially during the unprecedented Covid times. We couldn’t imagine this journey without Karen’s guiding hand. She is patient, kind and generous with time and care. The second pregnancy was more challenging and only thanks to Karen the baby and I are well. In addition, everyone at the Portland Hospital (midwives and doctors) adore Karen and love working beside her. Lastly, Karen (unsurprisingly) has the an amazing PA - Sophia. Sophia is incredible and I can’t thank her enough for the kind, professional and efficient support she has provided to us."

"Dr Karen Joash is a kind, considerate, professional, incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, attentive and wonderful obstetrician. I cannot rate her highly enough! I was very fortunate to have Dr Joash as my doctor throughout my pregnancy. She listens. She communicates well. She allayed all my fears as a first time mother. It is very clear that Karen cares deeply about her patients and is passionate about her profession."

"Dr. Joash was my doctor during my first pregnancy and she also delivered my baby. I can’t speak highly enough of her. Dr Joash is extremely competent and confident. I trust her wholeheartedly and would highly recommend her. She is a leader in her field, extremely knowledgeable and I had not doubt that me and my baby are in the most capable hands and that we will receive only the best care possible. Thanks to Karen I had a smooth pregnancy and delivery. We have received outstanding professional medical care. In addition, all the Hospital midwives that treated us mentioned time after time how amazing Karen is and how they enjoy working beside her. Lastly, her PA, Sophia, provided professional, efficient and comprehensive administrative support."

"Karen is simply wonderful. She delivered my second baby and I couldn't have been happier. She has a really fantastic bedside manner and she is warm, no-nonsense, and extremely competent. I felt very safe in her hands throughout pregnancy and delivery!"
