Dr Clemency Mitchell sees patients by appointment on Wednesdays at Country Life for NEWSTART lifestyle counseling. This free service is part of the Country Life Charitable Trust Educational program. There is a booking fee of £5 to cover administrative costs but there is no fee for the consultation.

NEWSTART health counseling takes an individual and holistic approach to health and lifestyle and has something to offer in every type of medical problem, from the most minor acute illness to the most serious chronic disease. It is not a medical consultation and does not usually involve physical examination. Any treatment recommended is completely natural and NEWSTART principles are complementary to medical treatment and work in cooperation with regular medical care.

In order to make the most of the appointment time, please complete the NEWSTART health questionnaire (available from Country Life) and bring it to your appointment.
