Dr Mayoni Gooneratne
Dr. Mayoni Gooneratne is a London-based medical doctor, functional medicine practitioner, and former NHS colorectal and pelvic floor surgeon with over two decades of clinical experience. After graduating from St George’s Hospital Medical School and becoming a member of the Royal College of Surgeons, she worked extensively in surgery before shifting her focus to integrative and preventative care. Certified by the Institute for Functional Medicine (AFMCP), she combines evidence-based medicine with holistic principles to help women achieve optimal health from the inside out.
She is the founder of The Clinic by Dr Mayoni, Human Health, and SkinFit—initiatives designed to address the root causes of symptoms rather than just treating them. Her approach bridges conventional medicine, functional diagnostics, and aesthetic treatments to support women through hormonal transitions, gut dysfunction, metabolic imbalance, and ageing. In 2022, she co-founded the British College of Functional Medicine to support high standards in training and professional development.
Dr. Mayoni is also an award-winning entrepreneur, recognised in the f:Entrepreneur #ialso100 and as a Silver Winner in the Best Business Women Awards for Health and Wellness. She is a passionate educator and speaker, having delivered a TEDx talk titled “Girls - Are you real world health ready?”, in which she challenges the current medical paradigm and advocates for greater self-agency in health decision-making for women.
Featured in Tatler, Women’s Health, and Cosmopolitan, Dr. Mayoni continues to lead conversations around integrative medicine, longevity, and female health. Through her clinics, programmes, and public speaking, she is committed to creating a safe, science-driven space where women can explore sustainable pathways to energy, vitality, and confidence. Her work is rooted in the belief that when women are supported to take ownership of their health, they unlock their full potential in all areas of life.
