Stooping to Conquer - Martina Toby
Martina Toby is an expert healthcare professional specialising in Women’s health across diverse backgrounds and age groups. She started her career as a Genitourinary physician before pivoting to a General Medical Practitioner and then stepping into entrepreneurship, with her soon to be launched menopause care business.
As she moves into the next phase of her professional journey, her focus has shifted toward education and advocacy. She is actively working to dispel the stigmas surrounding menopause, while also developing new, specialised care products. Central to her practice is a deep understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities that individuals encounter during menopause.
