Private Gynaecologist & Women's Health Issues

A cervical screening test (also known as a smear test) is used to detect early changes to cervical cells which, if left untreated, could develop into cervical cancer in the future. We are able to perform cervical screenings outside of the NHS programme, allowing you to have a smear test sooner. The NHS only starts to screen women from the age of 25.

If needed, our Gynaecologist is able to quickly arrange and perform a Colposcopy procedure for you – which is a straightforward outpatient procedure to examine your cervix in more detail. This is typically recommended if a smear test has shown there is a problem with the cells in your cervix.

We also provide a screening service that is specifically tailored to women's health. Following the appointment, your Gynaecologist will talk you through the results, give you an overview of your general health and wellbeing, and address any specific concerns and follow-up advice.

Our experts can advise on the full range of contraception options, whether you are looking to change contraception, have recently had a baby, require emergency contraception or would just like some general advice on preventing pregnancy.

Common contraception we're able to advise and act on include:

• Depo-Provera Injection

• IUCD Coil (T-Safe Copper Coil)

• IUCD Coil (Hormonal/Mirena)

• Contraceptive Implant (Nexplanon)

We can also provide advice on contraceptive tablets / medication. If you’re looking for something more long-term, we’re able to offer sterilisation procedures too.

All contraception planning is dynamic and reversible and we’re here to discuss the most suitable plan for you – from removing a coil or implant, changing your contraception plan or performing sterilisation reversal.

Ovarian cancer is one of the most common cancers among women and largely affects postmenopausal women. In many cases, it can go undetected as the early signs are often difficult to spot. With regular screening, you can identify the illness before it reaches an advanced stage, allowing for more effective treatment.

With our ovarian cancer screening service, we can help to detect the markers that signal the potential presence of cancer using a blood test. We offer two different types of tests, CA125 and HE4. Your consultant will advise which is most suitable for you.

Fibroids are benign growths which form in the womb lining - they are very common and don’t always cause symptoms. If you’re experiencing issues such as pain during intercourse, bloating, or heavy periods, these may be signs of fibroids.

If you’ve noticed anything unusual which you are worried about or if you just want to review your gynaecological health, our consultants can answer any questions, perform appropriate tests and give you tailored advice.

Infertility can be deeply difficult, both emotionally and physically, especially when you’ve been hoping to start a family for an extended period. 

On the NHS, couples and individuals usually have to wait at least a year before being referred to a specialist. Seeking private help means you can be seen straight away, something which is particularly important if you are trying for a baby in your late thirties or early forties.

Our Consultant Gynaecologists are able to discuss and assess any possible fertility concerns and challenges you may be having. We’re able to arrange any necessary blood tests and scans, and we’re also able to provide more advanced diagnostics within our own state-of-the-art hospital, including:

• Diagnostic laparoscopy and dye test

• Hysterosalpingo contrast echo sonography (HyCoSy)

• Hysterosalpingogram (HSG)

Although every woman goes through the menopause, it can be a very physically and emotionally demanding time. Our experts can create a personalised plan to help you cope with the effects of going through the menopause to make this huge change as manageable and as comfortable as possible for you.

Our experts can diagnose the cause of and provide treatment for a range of menstrual disorders including irregular periods, heavy periods or non-existent periods.

Sudden or prolonged pain in the pelvic area can occur for a number of reasons but is often the result of a gynaecological issue such as a burst or twisted ovarian cyst, endometriosis or pelvic inflammatory disease. Our highly-skilled specialists can address these concerns and provide a thorough diagnosis to help you understand the underlying causes and explore appropriate treatment options.
