Dr Francesca Peters
Consultant Radiologist
MBChB, MRCP, FRCR
I have over 16 years' experience as a Consultant Radiologist specialising in Symptomatic Breast Imaging having held posts at the Royal Marsden Hospital and Whittington Hospital, London before moving to East and North Hertfordshire Trust where I am Clinical Lead for Breast Imaging.
After completing specialist training in radiology at University College Hospital London I undertook a fellowship in oncological imaging at the Royal Marsden Hospital in 2007. I spent a further year working as a consultant radiologist at the Royal Marsden Hospital furthering my experience in my subspecialty areas of breast and gynaecological imaging.
In addition to my clinical work I am actively involved in both undergraduate and postgraduate education concentrating primarily on breast imaging. I am a lead course organiser on the London School of Radiology communications course - highlighting the need for effective communication between clinical teams. I have been a mentor on the Target Medicine scheme - a programme run out of University College London assisting students from underprivileged backgrounds apply for medical school
