Paula Hudgell: Resilience, Recovery, and the Importance of Regular Health Checks
By Dr Lauren Holland | Marylebone Diagnostic Centre, London
The remarkable story of Paula Hudgell – who adopted and fought for the wellbeing of young Tony Hudgell, a child who survived devastating abuse – has touched hearts across the UK.
Her journey reminds us of the power of compassion, recovery, and the essential role of health monitoring in rebuilding lives.
At Marylebone Diagnostic Centre (MDC), we believe stories like Paula’s highlight why early health screening and routine testing matter so deeply – not just for those recovering from illness or trauma, but for everyone striving to stay well.
Health, Healing, and Hope
Resilience often begins with understanding the body’s signals.
Whether someone is recovering from physical injury, chronic illness, or emotional exhaustion, baseline testing helps identify imbalances that may be slowing recovery – from anaemia and vitamin deficiency to hormonal disruption or inflammation.
At MDC, our testing supports physical and emotional healing through clear data, compassionate care, and rapid results.
Key Health Tests That Support Recovery
Full Blood Count (FBC)
Assesses oxygen levels, red and white blood cells, and early signs of anaemia or infection — vital in anyone experiencing fatigue or low energy.
Inflammation Markers (CRP and ESR)
Detect silent inflammation that can contribute to pain, tissue repair delays, or general malaise.
Vitamin & Mineral Profile
Checks levels of iron, vitamin D, B12, and magnesium — nutrients essential for nerve repair, muscle strength, and mental focus.
Hormone Profile
Measures thyroid, cortisol, and sex hormones that influence energy, mood, and immunity.
All testing is carried out under QC-validated laboratory standards, ensuring precision that meets the Marylebone High Standard.

Why Resilience Needs Routine Care
