Doctor Simon Glew founded The Hove Practice in September 2019. He is a dedicated GP with years of experience both in the NHS and the private sector. Until June 2020, he practiced privately in Chelsea as well as Hove. This has enabled him to develop and maintain a network of trusted Consultants at the forefront of the medical field, both locally and across London.
Brighton and Hove are close to his heart, having trained as a GP in the area. He achieved the highest mark across Kent, Surrey and Sussex in the Royal College of General Practitioners clinical skills membership examination. Dr Glew combined his GP training with a Masters in Medical Research, for which he was awarded a distinction.
He has diverse hospital experience including working in paediatrics in two major hospitals, psychiatry, ear, nose and throat medicine, care of older adults and obstetrics and gynaecology. He has a further interest in sports and exercise medicine.
He has published research in paediatrics (including the management of children with fevers), ear nose and throat medicine, allergy, sexual health, haematology, SCUBA diving and created a technique to assess the quality of medical record keeping.
Dr Glew has always had an interest in education, having trained GP trainees, junior doctors and medical students throughout his career. This culminated in working as an editor on a GP journal, producing award winning educational podcasts and becoming Vice-Chair of the Royal College of General Practitioners National Trainee Committee.
Outside of work, Dr Glew has two young daughters & a son with his wife (a paediatric doctor) and enjoys running, cycling, kite surfing, SCUBA diving, travel and improving his French.
He became a GP to advise, support and care for families and enjoys practicing with a holistic approach.

She then undertook General Practice training in North London at the Whittington Hospital, gaining experience in emergency medicine, general medicine, endocrinology and sexual health. Dr Davies has worked in a leading and innovative GP practice in Camden for the past five years, developing a huge breadth of experience.
Dr Davies prides herself on establishing long-lasting relationships with her patients, and tailoring care that address both current concerns and their wider context. She feels privileged to be a GP, she is curious to understand patients’ problems and create treatment plans together.
During her time in Camden, she continued to extend her professional development, gaining a diploma in Sexual & Reproductive Health, and undertaking courses in menopause care and counselling. These all help her explore patient needs more holistically.

Here she studied a range of medical specialities including: Neurology, Cardiology, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology and Oncology. She completed the Membership of the Royal College of Physicians (MRCP), a post graduate examination giving Dr Walker an excellent basis for General Practice.

She has developed specialist interests and completed extensive training in sexual health, contraception, women’s health and, in particular, menopause.

Doctor Williams is an experienced GP, having worked in the NHS for thirty years, and is known for his empathic and understanding manner. He is also an award-winning graphic novelist, broadsheet cartoonist and writer.
He qualified in Cardiff in 1989 and then worked in New Zealand before moving back to North Wales where he settled for many years.
He trained in General Practice, gaining his MRCGP in 1995, and in anaesthetics, in which he gained a diploma (DA). He also worked in the North Wales genitourinary medicine service, and as a police surgeon in the deprived North Wales coastal towns.
He joined a general practice in Corwen as a partner and became a GP trainer and, in time, senior partner of the practice. Due to the rural isolation of the area he covered, he became experienced in pre-hospital emergency care and in the 1990s he was team doctor for Ogwen Valley Mountain Rescue Team, and climbing medic on mountaineering expeditions in Alaska and Greenland.
In the 2000s he undertook an MA in Medical Humanities at Swansea University which started his career as a writer and cartoonist. He later worked at Manchester Medical school as a general practice facilitator/teacher and honorary clinical lecturer before moving to Brighton and Hove in 2013 – a move prompted by his publishers, and one he has never regretted.
