Only started following her a few months ago. Disappointed to see the spon con already after signing up to the agency. I found her content and her job really interesting before now. Thought she might be one of the genuine ones.Formerly Dr Mammy Guthrie on Instagram.
Emergency medicine doctor from Mayo, currently undergoing professional training in the UK. Recently signed up to a collaborations agency, for reasons unclear to everyone.
I'm very sad to see her sell out. Is no one safe!
I just don’t think medical professionals should ethically do ads for things that we use for health or wellbeing. Whatever about an insta hun or dopey aoibhe Devlin all of a sudden by the ways taking every vitamin known to man or trying to push vitamin D on us, a doctor or medical professional who used to use their platform to teach or educate and then they take payment from a brand whether it’s for vitamins or supplements or deodorant or sanitizer - surely that’s sending a message of the genera public having trusted that person as a medical professional and believing then that the product must be worth it or necessary etc. That’s where I see the issue ? Like you said you found Lisa’s stuff informative, so would you now feel that that’s the best sanitiser going because a doctor, and not any doctor - Lisa the one you trust, is selling the brand. Maybe not you because you’re wise to insta, but I just feel they are using the trust we have in them as a medic to then sell shit along side their name. Dr Laura took a very slippery slope and she’s laughable as a GP now. I honestly am disappointed at Lisa. I would have more respect if she was selling jeans or a jumper, then she isn’t selling her career or profession to flog an ad.Ya I was surprised when she announced it, I’ve followed for a long time and was always raving about her to my friends. She said that nothing would really change with her page which made me wonder why she’d bother joining and agency at all. Then BAM the ad came involving the child. It’s usually around now that I unfollow too. I don’t know why I’m so disappointed in her more than others. Should we expect her to provide content for free?! Maybe the problem is with me, I don’t know. I need to think about this a bit more.
Can’t say I noticed the shift to be honest, I thinks she only with them a couple of weeks... anyway, I’d still have faith in her being fairly honest in what she endorses, I can’t see her advertising voduz or any thing like that. Fingers crossed anyway.Found a real shift after she moved to agency. Thought the medical stuff turned form informative to a bit cocky? Maybe just me. Never once seen her sharing the brand of sanitizer she was SP yesterday in all her covid shares .. jury is out but will be interested to see what’s next. Why does the medical council allow medical professionals to be paid for specific brands of products should it not be an issue ?
This is exactly it. Sell us jeans or sell us make up. But anything that comes under health or wellbeing I really don’t think it’s fair to get someone to sell that because of their profession. And no need for kids. Would nearly prefer Lisa to be selling voduz to be honest then I would know a brand isn’t trying to manipulate sales because of the qualifications and work of the influencer. Doireann and Lisa for the hand wash gel. Do you see what I mean? It’s like asking a dentist to sell us spotlight tooth brush. It’s tacky. Keep insta for make up and clothes and maybe people won’t feel manipulatedIt doesn’t sit well with me at all when medical professionals are flogging something, but what made me unfollow her yesterday was that her very first ad had her child in it. There was no need for him to be in that picture, he can’t give consent and I have an intense dislike for instagrammers who use their kids to advertise things.
Yea actually, you make a good point.This is exactly it. Sell us jeans or sell us make up. But anything that comes under health or wellbeing I really don’t think it’s fair to get someone to sell that because of their profession. And no need for kids.

Love Dr Lisa, she's one of my favourites, tbh I was a bit disappointed when seen she signed with an agency and done the ad on sanitiser but after reading few comments here made me think again, she puts a lot of work into her Instagram, very informative, she's the complete polar opposite to Dr doireann and Dr laura who I swiftly unfollowed. As some of ye said if she sticks to her brand, not sell out and keeps her account the way it is now I'll still be following. Fair play to her to get to where she is now, she's great!
I was going to say I thought her forehead looked incredibly smooth, but then realised you meant she administers isI like her, she's local to me and very nice in person too.
But I'm really disappointed she's gone down this route.
She does botox on the side too, is that not enough of an extra earner without selling out to ads.
There is definitely a few years between them, she answered that question in a Q&A before but I can’t remember the exact difference, it’s at least 10 years I think. I didn’t know she administered Botox but she is open about getting done herself and her lips.I was going to say I thought her forehead looked incredibly smooth, but then realised you meant she administers is. I thought it was only dentists who used to do it on the side. Her husband seems nice too but looks like a big age difference between them
