Podcast host of The Medic Mum
Dr Punam Krishan is a practising NHS GP and a popular media personality based in Glasgow, Scotland. As resident doctor on the popular daytime show BBC Morning Live and a contributor to BBC Radio Scotland's Phone In Surgery, she addresses a wide range of health and lifestyle topics, making medical information accessible to the public.

Punam's journey has been shaped by her experiences as a mother of two young children, which has fostered her specialist interest in maternal and family health, as well as mental health. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she co-founded The Medic Mum Podcast with a fellow GP mother, aiming to provide parents with straightforward, relatable health advice. This initiative resonated with many, leading to the podcast being shortlisted for Best Podcast at the Glomama Awards.

In addition to her media work, Punam is an accomplished writer, with contributions to publications such as Vogue, Hello, and Grazia. She serves as a columnist for The i Newspaper and was recognised for her work in journalism, being shortlisted for the British Journalism Awards for Comment Journalism. Her literary contributions include the children's book How to be a doctor and other life-saving jobs, with her second book, You and Your Body, set for release in 2025.

Punam proudly identifies as Scottish-Indian and actively promotes cultural representation. Her 2024 turn on Strictly Come Dancing featured a traditional Bollywood routine, celebrated by the BBC as a significant moment for cultural visibility.

With a diverse background and a commitment to bridging the gap between health and everyday life, Krishan continues to inspire and inform audiences through her various platforms.

Have all the speakers on the website previously worked with PepTalk?

Not necessarily. While the speakers listed on our website may not have worked with PepTalk in the past, they are recognized professionals in the industry and known to engage in similar events and engagements. We work with a wide variety of speaker agents and talent agencies to ensure we have the best selection of speakers, hosts, comedians and entertainers available.

Can I request a speaker to send a personal greeting?

We do not accommodate requests for birthday messages or any other personal, non-commercial contact with the speakers, comedians or entertainers.

How much do speakers and comedians cost?

We work with speakers across a variety of fee ranges, giving you the flexibility to choose someone who fits your event's needs. Virtual keynote fees in the UK and Europe typically start at £2,000, while in-person top-tier speakers can reach £25,000. In the US, virtual in-person fees range from $5,000 to over $100,000, depending on the speaker and format, such as after-dinner talks, conference keynotes, Q&As, or podcasts. Comedians generally start at £1,500 or $2,000 for a 20-minute set.

Our goal is to help you find the speaker who best matches your event’s goals and budget. We take the time to understand your event, objectives, and audience to recommend the right fit. The most expensive option isn’t always the best one, and our priority is finding the ideal speaker or expert for your needs; not the highest-priced one.

Reach out for personalised recommendations and detailed information on specific speaker fees. We’re here to offer a tailored service and are always happy to discuss your unique requirements!
