Leah Totton

Leah Totton (born 22 January 1988) is a Northern Irish practising physician who won the 2013 series of BBC One's The Apprentice. Her business plan, a cosmetic clinic co-owned with Lord Alan Sugar, launched in 2014. She has received media attention for success on the show, the resulting business, and for advocacy of improved quality and integrity in the cosmetic treatment industry.

Leah Totton grew up in Derry, Northern Ireland. She studied medicine at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, graduating as a physician in 2011, and subsequently registered with the General Medical Council.

In 2013, Totton won the £250,000 prize for business acumen on BBC One's The Apprentice, a British reality television competition that offers the winner an opportunity to work with British business magnate Lord Alan Sugar. She continued work as a physician within the NHS on a locum basis.

In 2014, Dr Leah Clinic, co-owned with Lord Sugar, opened in central London. After her TV win, Totton's expertise was criticised, including comments by several members of the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS). At launch, the clinic had a consultant plastic surgeon, who is a BAAPS advisor, and Dr Martyn King, owner of the Cosmedic Skin Clinic, as Medical Director. One year after opening, The Irish Post quoting Totton, reported that the clinic met financial targets ahead of schedule.
