Meet our expert medical consultants

medical professional at work

At Compass CHC we have a team of both medical and legal experts. Specialist non-practising lawyers who exclusively work in the field of continuing healthcare funding, as well as a number of clinical and medical experts.

We are able to draw upon the medical expertise of a consultant neurologist, a senior General Practitioner doctor, a senior pharmacist, as well as our continuing healthcare specialist Registered General Nurse. We believe this combination of expert clinical opinions and skills gives us a multidisciplinary team and unique position that is unmatched by other companies and law firms operating in this niche area.

Who are our medical experts?

Dr Jason Ramtahal is a senior consultant neurologist. Dr Ramtahal is able to provide specialist insight into the a patient’s cognition and any issues surrounding neurological conditions the patient may suffer from such as dementia, Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s.

Dr Dermaid McMenamin is a senior General Practitioner and emergency medicine doctor. Dr McMenamin is available to provide his opinion across a broad spectrum of medical queries having worked both in general medicine in the community and in emergency medicine.

Chrissie Watts is a qualified Registered General Nurse with recent experience working in continuing healthcare funding. Chrissie has undertaken NHS Continuing Healthcare checklists for patients and has a career in nursing spanning many years.

Sarah McMenamin is an advanced Clinical Pharmacist who has been in practice for over 16 years in both hospital and primary care pharmacy settings.
