Throughout her career, Aimee has witnessed the changing landscape of TOP and advocates for ongoing improvements to make women's healthcare more readily available.
She said: “I worked as a student Nurse in Gynaecology at BWH and this fuelled my desire to work within women's health care upon qualification. I feel so privileged to work at BWH with a fantastic team of clinicians that always put the patients at the heart of everything we do. Being nominated and recognised was such an achievement as I feel that nurses are an integral part of the patients journey and I strongly feel we are the patient advocate in what can be such a harrowing time for the patient.”

Her passion for the field and desire to invest in and enhance women's healthcare reflects her unwavering dedication to her patients' well-being.
Aimee said: “I strive to empower women to make decisions with regards to their own health through education, be it with contraception or with treatment options for termination of pregnancy. I have seen the changing face of TOP over the years and hope that we can continue to break down unnecessary barriers to provide much-needed safe care where applicable. I love what I do and would envisage that women's health care continues to be invested in and improved to make access more readily available for our patients.”
