Expert care in specialist diagnostics providing clarity in complexity
Dr Cavill is a highly experienced Consultant in Acute and General Internal Medicine, recognised for her diagnostic precision and personalised approach to complex, multi-system medical conditions. She is known for her clarity, compassion, and thorough, pragmatic approach to patient care.
She provides bespoke care for adults with complex or unclear medical problems, including unexplained symptoms, multiple comorbidities, and conditions requiring coordinated input across several specialties. Dr Cavill has a particular interest in the investigation and management of unexplained and chronic fatigue. She works alongside leading specialists in this field and is a member of the Therapeutic Apheresis (INUSpheresis) committee at the Cromwell Hospital—one of the few centres in London offering this treatment for Long Covid and ME. Her role focuses on clinical assessment, multidisciplinary coordination, and providing continuity in what can often be a fragmented care journey.
Dr Cavill graduated with honours from King’s College London and completed her specialist training across several leading central London hospitals. She currently works within the NHS at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and runs a successful private practice at the Cromwell Hospital, Chelsea & Westminster Private Care, and Ovara Health Women’s Clinic.
She previously served as Director of Ambulatory Emergency Care, where she led the development of the hospital’s Same Day Emergency Care (SDEC) service, improving access to specialist care without hospital admission.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, she was appointed Lead for the North West London Covid Medicines Delivery Unit (CMDU), overseeing the highest-performing service in the UK, as featured by the BBC. She has also served as Clinical Lead for Sepsis.
Her academic background includes a Clinical Fellowship in Acute Frailty and Geriatric Medicine at University College London Hospital (UCLH) and a Master’s degree in Gerontology from King’s College London, awarded with a full academic scholarship.

Dr Sofia Cavill's patient interactions are thorough, caring, and professional. She excels at diagnosing and managing complex medical conditions such as severe asthma, long COVID, and Lyme disease. Patients appreciate her clear explanation of medical issues and her dedicated pursuit of root causes, a process which requires extensive tests and clear treatment plans. Her comprehensive care addresses Blood Testing and Results Interpretation and Tiredness (Fatigue).
Dr Cavill is friendly, with a warm manner and understanding approach. She also took all of my concerns into consideration and gave me confidence that she will help me get to the bottom of my issues.
Dr Cavill, was kind, reassuring. Understood what I was going through, and understood she had to take charge and advocate. Opened my eyes to the treatment I have recieved and being sub optimal. I happy with her suggestions. And all delivered with empathy and genuine kindness!
I had a really good initial consultation with Dr Cavill. Felt like she really listened to me and was keen to help me understand where my symptoms are coming from
I have seen Dr Cavill twice now and she has been exceptional on both occasions. She is extremely attentive and takes a genuinely holistic approach to my care, carefully considering all aspects of my health rather than focusing narrowly on one symptom or issue. Dr Cavill has been incredibly thorough in her investigations, taking the time to explore potential underlying causes, arranging appropriate tests, and clearly explaining the reasoning behind each step. I never feel rushed during appointments, and she ensures nothing is overlooked, even when symptoms are complex, intermittent, or difficult to describe. She is reassuring, methodical, and clearly committed to understanding the full picture of my health. I would highly recommend Dr Cavill to anyone looking for a caring, diligent, and highly thorough doctor.
I cannot recommend Dr Cavill highly enough. She treated me extremely effectively for post-viral fatigue, acute asthma, long COVID, and mast cell activation syndrome, and her expertise across multiple fields of medicine is truly outstanding. From the very first appointment, she combined exceptional clinical knowledge with a delightful, warm and friendly bedside manner. She listens very carefully, takes concerns seriously and explains everything with clarity and patience, which is incredibly reassuring when dealing with complex conditions. I always felt heard, understood and confident in her care. Dr Cavill is an exceptional consultant, and I would strongly recommend her to anyone seeking thorough, compassionate and expert medical treatment.
Dr Cavell looked after me at Cromwell Hospital after my back operation. I had various fairly serious problems apart from the back. She has been enormously helpful in diagnosing and rectifying my problems, and thanks to her care, I am much nearer a full recovery.
Sofia is an excellent doctor, meticulous, thorough, and incredibly attentive. She carefully considers every possible factor to ensure nothing is overlooked.
Doctor Cavill is an exception to the norm her bedside manner professionalism and explanations are without doubt first class. We would’ve been lost without her.. I cannot recommend more highly. First class healthcare given in all areas..
Dr Cavill is the most thorough doctor Ive ever had for my me/cfs/long covid and I have seen multiple me/cfs specialists. Her work ethic for my case despite most doctors not wanting to touch it has shown a real care that she has for her patients and also getting to the bottom of complex problems. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
I was referred to Dr Sofia Cavill by Mr. Raza due to abnormal blood results and a multitude of symptoms/ongoing problems. Dr. Cavill is a very warm and caring person, she took the time to listen to all my health problems and asked all the necessary questions to accurately understand what is going on with my health. She is very thorough in her assessments which made me feel so relieved! I feel completely safe and have complete trust in Dr. Sofia’s care. She is incredibly kind and knowledgeable and the care she provides is nothing short of amazing!
Sofia is an excellent clinician who delivers outstanding acute medical care. We have jointly cared for numerous patients and the feedback from patients has always been extremely positive.
