Mr Duncan graduated in 1989 with a Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery (MB ChB) from Leeds University. He went on to undertake training in the North of England before relocating to London for his specialist training in maternal and foetal medicine. In 2001, he was awarded accreditation as a sub-specialist in maternal and fetal medicine. From 2003 until recently he held his NHS role as Consultant in Chelsea and Westminster Hospital.

He is a strong supporter of personal choice in childbirth and listening to the individual needs and wishes of each patient. Whether it's water births, caesareans or hypno-birthing, his philosophy is to provide a positive birth experience for all parents to be.

As a member of the British Maternal Fetal Medicine Society, for over 10 years, Mr Duncan served as the representative for London and the South West at the prestigious Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists taking an active interest in global women's health. His research interests focus on ultrasound scanning and development in utero, having been one of the pioneers of the use of MRI in fetal assessment for which he was awarded his MD thesis.

I’ve just had my second C section under Dr Duncan’s care and I couldn’t fault him on anything. He was great throughout my pregnancies, during the operations and aftercare. I would highly recommend him.

Keith is the epitome of professionalism. A man of few words but is incredibly particular when it comes to the care of mother and baby. Keith took us on late in the pregnancy journey and nothing was of too much trouble to him. The care and comfort afforded to us after a difficult experience of a previous birth made us feel at ease and on the day of delivery we could not have asked for a better consultant nor the team he had around him. Keith has been brilliant on the delivery of 2 children for us and we would definitely return should we have another.

Dr Duncan performed my second caesarean section. Thanks to his expertise, I experienced significantly less pain overall and a much faster recovery than my first c-section. I am very happy with my experience and would recommend him to others.

We had an amazing experience with Dr. Duncan. He safely delivered our beautiful daughter in January and has been an honest and extremely skilled voice throughout the entire pregnancy and delivery. We couldn't be happier and couldn't thank him more.

Explanation

I had the best experience (prenatal, labor, and postpartum care) with Dr Duncan. He was always reachable via text message and helped me through my pregnancy and thereafter. I had a very thick c-section scar from the last surgery at an NHS hospital, and Dr Duncan beautifully corrected that. Also, the post-surgery pain this time was incomparably manageable, and the recovery was seamless. Also, his assistant Colette is very organized and very quick in responding to emails and phone calls, which immensely helped me and made my experience positive.

We were lucky enough to have Keith look after both our pregnancies. When we found out we were pregnant with our second child, it was a no-brainer to return to Keith's care. Keith is a phenomenal obstetrician - his care is flawless and his affable, calm manner felt we were in the best hands at all times. He reliable, relatable and absolutely trustworthy.

Dr Duncan provided a phenomenal experience throughout our entire pregnancy. He truly is an expert in his field. Super approachable and very pragmatic, he went above and beyond and delivered our baby calmly (and always with a suitable dose of humour) in the safest possible way. We are so grateful for having Dr Duncan deliver our first child - he holds a special place in heart forever. Thank you to Dr Duncan and of course Colette!!
