Dr Kaley Ainsworth
Medical Doctor with a Special Interest in Mental Health
She has built clinical experience across several specialties in the North East of England, and her recent focus has been psychiatry, which is now her specialist interest.
Her academic work studied how exercise supports the management of arthritis, and that remains a professional priority. It also gives her an unusual pair of interests to hold at once: the physical and the psychological. In practice that is an advantage, because low mood and chronic joint pain frequently arrive in the same appointment and are rarely separable.
Outside clinical practice she dances, hikes and runs.
