MedComms, mentoring and menopause education in women’s health

I am a Women’s Health Communications Consultant with a decade of experience in MedComms and lived experience of Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI), menopause, infertility and donor-egg IVF.

I help organisations communicate clearly, compassionately and strategically about women’s health. The right language improves understanding, confidence and care for the women who need it.

Women’s health communications

How I work

Clear thinking done properly

People often come to me because they want things explained clearly, handled thoughtfully and done properly.

Some clients need strategic MedComms support on a defined project, while others want a trusted adviser they can return to over time. Individuals may be looking for guidance, clarity or confidence in navigating menopause or POI, or their professional direction in MedComms.

Whatever the starting point, my approach is practical, honest and grounded in experience. I collaborate closely with clients and individuals, tailoring support rather than offering off‑the‑shelf solutions.

UK-based medical communications consultant, mentor and educator

I have over ten years’ experience working across MedComms agencies and consultancy roles, supporting pharmaceutical companies, biotech organisations, professional societies and charities. My work spans reproductive medicine, fertility treatment, menopause, POI and related conditions, and includes strategy, scientific writing, training and education.

Alongside my professional background, I bring lived experience of premature ovarian insufficiency, infertility, and donor-egg IVF. This experience does not replace scientific expertise, but it has shaped how I think about communication, education and support. It has given me a clear understanding of how information is received, where gaps exist and how language can either empower or overwhelm.

KommuniKate was founded to bring these perspectives together. The aim is to support better medical communications, more meaningful inclusion of patient experience and more confident professionals and individuals working in or affected by women’s health.

Before moving fully into consultancy, I trained and worked as a teacher. That background continues to inform how I mentor, educate and advise. I am known for being clear, calm and direct, and for helping people think through problems rather than offering generic answers.

I work collaboratively and build relationships based on trust, clarity and shared purpose.

Bringing her vast knowledge and strategic mindset to benefit any project she turns her hand to – a credit to any team! I hope we get the chance to partner together again.”

Charlotte ChapmanAccount Director, 2theNth

“I've worked with Kate over a number of years and have no hesitation in recommending her. She has experience across a breadth of med comms deliverables, is adaptable regarding roles, has a keen eye for quality, and would be an asset to any team she worked with.”

Liam Sebag-MontefioreDirector, Dartstone

“We have loved and continue to love working with Kate; I cannot recommend her highly enough. Her writing is extremely clear and accurate, and she turns around work well in advance of deadlines. Her demeanour in meetings and emails with us and with clients is always extremely professional. I don’t have any reservations in recommending her.”

Principal Medical WriterProPharma

“I have known Kate since we were both medical writers in an agency setting about 10 years ago... [Recently], Kate was one of the key providers of both information and encouragement prior to my transition to freelance writing. Kate possesses extensive knowledge of medical communications and the pharmaceutical industry, as well as a keen understanding and application of strategy. Additionally, her passion and drive for improving healthcare, particularly women's health, is inspirational. As such, Kate has given not only career advice, but also personal support from her experience and knowledge of women's health, which has been invaluable to me as a woman in her mid-40's.
I would highly recommend Kate for career mentoring whether it is for entry into medical communications or for later career stages!”

Lisa CarneFreelance Medical Writer

“Working with Kate Booth has been an absolute gift. From our very first conversation, she combined practical, no-nonsense freelancing advice with genuine warmth and encouragement. She has a brilliant way of cutting through overwhelm, helping me clarify my goals, refine my positioning, and take concrete steps forward with confidence.
Kate is generous with her knowledge, honest in her feedback, and deeply supportive without ever being pushy. I’ve come away from our sessions not just with clearer strategies, but with a stronger belief in myself and what I’m building. I’m incredibly grateful for her mentorship and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any freelancer looking for smart guidance and thoughtful support.”
