“This is a wonderful appointment. Lesley is a committed clinician and will be a fantastic advocate for women’s health. Having already achieved so much in improving care for women and girls as the previous president of the RCOG, we are thrilled that Lesley can continue her work, and help shape the Government’s upcoming Women’s Health Strategy.
