ABOUT
GREG JAMES
The doctor behind Kratos Medical.
I first started working with Sports Teams in August 2014, which sparked my interest in Sport and Exercise medicine. Initially starting with rugby and American football, I have since gone on to work with those competing in horse racing, motocross, competitive bodybuilding, weightlifting, powerlifting and marathon running.
For several years, I created and volunteered in a clinic screening and advising on those using image and performance enhancing drugs (IPED); the use of which has been increasing in recent years. This is something I forged as an area of special interest for me. I have attended and advised at Public Health Wales expert information gathering events, and been pleased to have had input in the consensus guidelines on how best to serve this population.
I went on to advise the Secure Environments doctors, working with the police and the prison population, delivered teaching on this in schools, NHS hospitals and GP practices. I was approached by the military to deliver IPED teaching to their clinicians, and delivered this to a busy auditorium in London in 2018.
MY PERSONAL
FITNESS JOURNEY
Some years ago, I started at a 52 inch waist myself! My weight was out of control, my health was in serious jeopardy and I made the commitment to change. It remains the single best decision of my life. I know exactly how difficult, stressful and challenging this can be, so for me, it is more than a job; it’s personal and every one of my clients can be guaranteed that my passion and expertise are honed by my own experiences.
“I struggled for energy for many months in the past year - but since finding Kratos Medical, I have re-found my energy.”
Dave Smith, 24
TEAM KRATOS
I’ve always been struck by the passion and drive in those competing, and I’m particularly interested in the non-professional athlete - the individual who has to juggle all of the other stresses, strains and commitments while pushing to achieve their goal.
I feel very passionately about what Kratos Medical provides. I want to help the semi-professional get that extra 0.1% as much as I want to help another person to take the first step towards a healthier, stronger, fitter version of themselves.
