Welcoming Dr Robin Fackrell to Combe Grove
Three years ago, our first clients bravely crossed the threshold of Combe Grove, as they took their first steps towards improving their metabolic health.
We had begun the journey as Combe Grove the Centre for Metabolic Health.
Since then, we have welcomed and supported many, many people on their individual pathways to long term wellness.
We are pleased to welcome Dr Robin Fackrell, Consultant Physician, to Combe Grove, with a shared purpose of supporting and enabling people to live and age well.
With 25 years of experience in general medicine and the last 15 years as a Consultant Physician, managing disease and specialising in degenerative disease states, including Parkinson’s, Dementia and Alzheimer’s; Dr Fackrell is passionate about the role of metabolic health in prevention, reversal and the halting of disease.

“I have become increasingly interested in the journey that people have been on prior to meeting me. Often, it is the lifestyle choices that are made in midlife and earlier which create a landscape of metabolic unwellness. I am passionate about intervening earlier and helping people avoid unintentional self sabotage.”
Dr Robin Fackrell, Consultant Physician
Consultations with Dr Fackrell
At Combe Grove, we know that GPs believe that 88% of the UK population are metabolically unwell: struggling with weight management, raised blood pressure, unhealthy lipid profile, impaired glucose metabolism and increased abdominal fat. These signals are all indicators of metabolic syndrome, which in turn highlight an increased risk of degenerative disease.
Allow Dr Robin Fackrell to help you to achieve optimal physical health and cognitive performance. His range of Optimise Products address multiple lifestyle areas from optimising cognition, restorative high-quality sleep, preparing for effective and speedy recovery from surgery to optimising medication impact and reviewing polypharmacy. Dr Fackrell will personalise your healthspan and leverage the evidence hidden beneath your skin, using your Metabolic Markers.
Initial 45 minute consultations are available at £265.
Metabolic Markers, including blood results and body composition analysis, can be collected on a Health Reset Day for £225, on the Metabolic Health Retreat from £1,200 or at a booked consultation with a member of our Clinical Team for £175.
You may prefer to upgrade to a Metabolic Membership of the Club, currently £1,200 per year, which would give you access to full Metabolic Markers and Nutrition Consultations during the year. Please contact andrea.lindsay@combegrove.com to enhance your membership at Combe Grove.
Dr Fackrell will use your Metabolic Markers to assess and form part of his recommendations. He may request additional bio markers to support your journey, which will require an additional cost, with your approval.
Appointments can be booked through Dr Fackrell’s PA at optimise@combegrove.com. Please include your name, date of birth, telephone number and a brief reason for your consultation.
