About

Matharu trained at the University of Manchester, qualified as a Member of the Royal College of General Practitioners, and practiced as a National Health Service primary-care specialist for more than 15 years before relocating to New York. At Mount Sinai, she completed residency training in Occupational and Environmental Medicine and General Preventive Medicine, then layered on a Master's in Community Medicine, a Diploma in Practical Dermatology, and a Women's Health fellowship. She is double board-certified in Family Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine.

What to Know

Signature approach

Matharu brings a family medicine plus lifestyle medicine frame to the Elitra Exam. After the history and physical, she translates same-day diagnostics into prevention steps that lean on nutrition, activity, sleep, stress, and behavior change before medication becomes the main lever. Her UK GP background adds a broad primary-care lens to the New York executive-physical setting.

What sets them apart

  • Two health systems, two countries. More than 15 years as an NHS GP, followed by Mount Sinai preventive-medicine training in New York.
  • Double board-certified. ABFM Family Medicine plus DipABLM Lifestyle Medicine anchors both primary-care breadth and behavior-change planning.
  • Women's health and dermatology training. A fellowship and practical dermatology diploma broaden what she can address inside one preventive visit.

Before You Book

  • Ask during intake if physician match matters. Matharu is part of the Elitra exam physician pool; request her UK GP, lifestyle-medicine, or women's-health background if that fit matters.
  • Expect a prevention plan, not ongoing primary care. The Elitra Exam is a single-day assessment. Longitudinal care is a separate concierge program.
