Reviews
Frances cares, listens carefully and asks the right questions to know more about you. I felt very comfortably talking to her.
I feel Dr Klemperer listened about my problems and took them into consideration. She was attentive, helpful and friendly. I was very pleased with her suggestions and next steps about my mental health.
I was nervous about seeing a psychiatrist but Dr Klemperer put me at ease right away. She was lovely to talk to and clearly really cared about understanding my particular experiences rather than just wanting to put me “in a box”. I feel in very good hands under her care and I’m looking forward to working with her going forward.

Dr Klemperer is very positive, trustworthy and eager to help.
Profile
I studied medicine at Cambridge University and Guy’s Hospital, London.
I trained in psychiatry at Guy’s Hospital, where I conducted award-winning research, publishing in the British Medical Journal and the British Journal of Psychiatry.
In addition, I hold the Institute of Psychiatry's qualification in cognitive behavioural therapy, a field in which I am recognised by the Royal College of Psychiatrists as having special expertise. This combined knowledge of psychiatry and psychotherapy allows me to make comprehensive assessments of my patients’ life difficulties.
I have worked as a consultant psychiatrist in London and Brussels, with over 20 years experience as a consultant in general adult psychiatry.
I practice in the NHS in Westminster and in Kensington and Chelsea, am an honorary Senior Clinical Lecturer at Imperial College and have an independent practice.
I aim always to collaborate closely with my patients to properly understand their particular situation and to actively work with them to develop the most appropriate and effective long-term therapeutic plan.
