GMC Number: 6152923
Dr Maryam Behnam is a highly experienced Private GP and Family Physician with more than a decade of experience in primary care. As a Member of the Royal College of General Practitioners, she combines comprehensive General Practice with specialist interests in preventative medicine, women's health, longevity, wellbeing and medical aesthetics.
At London Paediatric Clinic, Dr Behnam's primary role is to support the parents of children attending Dr Badr Chaban's paediatric service. While Dr Chaban and the paediatric team focus on the child's health, growth and development, Dr Behnam provides accessible and continuous medical care for mothers, fathers and other adult family members.
This joined-up approach enables the clinic to care for the family as a whole, recognising that the health and wellbeing of parents are closely connected to the wellbeing of their children.
Dedicated GP Care for Parents
Pregnancy, childbirth and the early years of parenting can place considerable physical and emotional demands on parents, particularly mothers. Dr Behnam provides discreet, personalised GP care for a wide range of adult health concerns, helping parents access medical advice in a familiar and trusted clinical setting.
Parents may seek her support for general medical concerns, acute illness, women's health, hormonal wellbeing, postnatal recovery, fatigue, sleep difficulties, stress, emotional wellbeing, nutrition, weight management and metabolic health.
She also provides preventative screening, comprehensive blood testing, health checks, rapid access to investigations and referrals to trusted specialists where required.
Where the health of a parent and child may be connected, Dr Behnam can work closely with Dr Chaban to ensure families receive coordinated advice and support within one clinical team.
Preventative Health, Wellbeing and Longevity
Dr Behnam's philosophy extends beyond treating illness. She focuses on identifying health risks early and helping patients improve their long-term physical health, energy, confidence and quality of life.
Her personalised approach may include detailed medical assessments, advanced blood testing, nutrition, exercise, sleep, hormonal health, metabolic health, stress management and sustainable lifestyle changes.
Dr Behnam holds postgraduate qualifications in Lifestyle Medicine, Clinical Dermatology and Intravenous Nutrient Therapy. Her experience allows her to combine evidence-based General Practice with a proactive approach to healthy ageing, longevity and personal wellbeing.
By taking time to understand each patient's medical history, lifestyle, concerns and goals, she provides clear, practical advice designed to support better health now and in the future.
Women's Health and Postnatal Wellbeing
Dr Behnam has a particular interest in women's health and the wellbeing of mothers during and after pregnancy. She understands that many parents place their own health second while caring for their children, often delaying medical advice until symptoms begin to affect daily life.
She provides support for hormonal concerns, tiredness, low energy, nutritional issues, stress, sleep problems, postnatal recovery and general wellbeing. Her approach is calm, thorough and personalised, helping patients feel listened to, reassured and supported.
By offering dedicated GP care for parents within London Paediatric Clinic, Dr Behnam helps families access adult medical support alongside their child's paediatric care.
Medical Aesthetics and Injectable Treatments
Alongside her GP and preventative health practice, Dr Behnam provides personalised medical-aesthetic treatments designed to support natural-looking rejuvenation, confidence and wellbeing.
Following a detailed consultation and facial assessment, treatments may include anti-wrinkle injections, botulinum toxin treatments, dermal fillers, facial rejuvenation, injectable aesthetic treatments and skin-health programmes.
All treatments are provided with careful consideration of the patient's health, facial anatomy, expectations and suitability. Dr Behnam's approach focuses on subtle, balanced and natural-looking results, with patient safety and medical judgement at the centre of every treatment plan.
Responsive and Continuous Private Care
Dr Behnam offers both in-clinic and, where appropriate, home consultations. Her private GP service includes assessment and treatment of acute illness, common infections, influenza, gastroenteritis and food poisoning, as well as comprehensive health screening, rapid blood testing and ongoing preventative care.
Together, Dr Behnam, Dr Chaban and the London Paediatric Clinic team provide a distinctive family-centred service: specialist paediatric care for the child, dedicated GP care for parents, and personalised support for the family's health, wellbeing, longevity and confidence.
