Chintal Patel

I am a NHS doctor ( A GP in London), a mum, a food writer and recipe developer. As an NHS doctor, I am deeply passionate about promoting health and nutrition, which is reflected in my debut cookbook - Dr Chintal's Kitchen. Due to be published on 4th July 2024, Dr Chintal's Kitchen" combines evidence-backed information on health and nutrition with easy, delicious family-friendly recipes aimed at helping families embrace healthier eating habits and enjoy cooking from scratch at home. It is my firm belief that through accessible and nutritious meals, we can positively impact our well-being and overall health. My particular area of interest is in family friendly recipes and getting children cooking in the kitchen. I also host nutrition workshops and cookery classes. I write a recipe blog on Instagram/TikTok/Facebook @drchintalskitchen and have a (rather outdated!) website www.drchintalskitchen.com.
