Dr Robertson’s particular interests include men’s health (especially the growing work on testosterone deficiency), sports medicine, urgent care, asthma, COPD, and Long Covid. With his Occupational Medicine qualification, he is certified to complete the vast majority of work/management referrals as well as travel-related forms within a timely manner.
Dr Robertson is currently an NHS GP in North Yorkshire, where he holds the position of Clinical Lead of Urgent Care and Cardiovascular Prevention, as well as being one of the Lead Advisers to Wakefield Primary Care. He is also the National Chair for the Royal College of General Practitioners on Sustainability within Primary Care.
He believes the role of a good GP is to be the patient’s advocate in all things medical. As a result, he prides himself on his ability to organise the patient’s health journey, ensuring they feel heard, supported, and reassured at all times.
Outside of medicine, Dr Robertson enjoys a wide variety of sports, including cycling, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and anything outside. He enjoys travel, wine, and spending time with his young family.
