Dr Ingrid Wolfe

Dr Ingrid Wolfe is Director of King’s Health Partners Women’s and Children’s Health. She is a Consultant in Paediatric Population Health at Evelina London Children’s Hospital, and Clinical Reader in Paediatrics and Child Health at King’s College London. She is Director of CHILDS a clinical-academic partnership for improving child health in South London, and co-Chair of the British Association for Child and Adolescent Public Health.

Ingrid is qualified in paediatrics and public health, enabling her to be a children’s doctor with a very broad perspective. She has on-the-ground insight from clinical practice, and an understanding of the population from public health.  These two aspects come together in her NHS and academic work focusing on improving child health through strengthening healthcare, health systems, and informing policy in the UK and Europe. She leads several research programmes designing and testing interventions to improve child health.

Ingrid’s goal is to improve child health through advancing and applying science in children’s health services, systems, and policy, so she publishes and speaks widely on these subjects. She was awarded an OBE for services to children’s health in 2016.
