Dr. Jane Uygur
MD CCFP MClSc

Dr. Jane was born and educated in Canada.  She completed her medical degree at McMaster University and trained in Family Medicine at McGill University in Montreal. She did some additional training in obstetrics, gynaecology, and geriatrics in New Zealand before returning to Canada to complete a “Care of the Elderly” fellowship in her hometown of Ottawa.   

Dr. Jane has fifteen years of clinical experience working in many different settings, both urban and rural.  She loves working with people of all ages and is skilled at managing medical problems from childhood through to the later years. Her additional training in “Care of the Elderly”  has also provided her with an in-depth understanding of health issues specific to this time of life.

Dr. Jane feels that a good patient-doctor relationship is fundamental to providing excellent healthcare.  This is a key concept that she passes on to the medical students that she teaches at RCSI & TCD. Her interest in this area has lead her to research how physicians can best provide compassionate care to their patients.  Having finished her Master’s degree, she is continuing this research as part of her PhD. Dr. Jane is a founding partner of Eldon, since it’s inception in 2019.

Dr. Jane’s Irish husband brought her to Dublin over a decade ago and she loves her new home.  When she isn’t busy working or running after her two wonderful daughters, she practices yoga and Buddhism, goes jogging and sings in a choir.
