Dr Komal Jaiswal
Driven by a commitment to professionalism, patient safety and excellence in healthcare, I have built my career across clinical practice, medical education, governance and regulation. I am passionate about supporting doctors at all stages of their careers and contributing to a strong, trusted and future-focused profession.
With 25 years in medicine, including more than two decades in general practice, I bring extensive experience in educational leadership, governance and regulation. My work across clinical practice, medical education, and professional leadership has given me a deep understanding of the challenges facing doctors and the opportunities to strengthen our profession.
