I am delighted to be in conversation with Dr Dan Poulter who has been the MP for Central Suffolk and North Ipswich since May 2010. Dan is also a psychiatrist.

Between 2012 and 2015 he was a Government health minister with responsibilities including maternity, child health, veteran’s health, NHS procurement, NHS estates, and the NHS workforce. He is currently Co-Chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Global Health and a member of the Energy and Net Zero House of Commons Select Committee.   

Dan has extensive knowledge and public policy expertise in health & social care, energy & climate change, agriculture, international development, public sector procurement, and drugs laws.  

He still works as an NHS doctor in the field of mental health, liaison psychiatry and addictions on a part-time basis.   

I really enjoyed speaking with Dan, I found him remarkably authentic and real as a Member of Parliament, and an extremely knowledgeable psychiatrist.
