Quality GMP & Regulatory Consultant – Scotland & the UK


Hello, I’m Dr Gavin Matthew of Dudhope Consulting. I’m an expert Quality, GMP and Regulatory Consultant with 30+ years of experience. I work for Pharmaceutical,  MedTech, biotech and diagnostics companies across the UK and internationally

I work from my home in Dundee, Scotland or at client’s locations worldwide.

Are you a Biotech/MedTech startup wondering:

  • What regulations you need to comply with?
  • How to create your QMS?
  • How to work towards CE or UKCA certification?

Or perhaps you are an established biotech scaling or improving your quality operations, or a pharma company preparing for an MHRA or FDA inspection?

I can provide tailored Quality, GMP consulting and regulatory support to get your QMS up and running and have you audit-ready without slowing down your innovation.

I’ve worked with life sciences companies across the UK, especially Scotland and internationally as a Quality, GMP and Regulatory Consultant.

My background spans venture-backed MedTech startups to global pharmaceutical and med-dev manufacturers including AstraZeneca, GSK, ThermoFisher and Piramal.

Over 30+ years, I have gained a pragmatic, practical and commercial understanding of what regulatory compliance actually requires at every stage of growth.
