Whilst we do serve a high number of patients, each woman and her needs are carefully looked at by our team of specialists, ensuring the best medical treatment for every patient.

Common Concerns

All aspects of female reproductive health are within the remit of our experienced consultants. Some of the more common concerns that we explore on a daily basis include:

• Abnormal smear results
• Pelvic and vaginal pain
• Abnormal vaginal bleeding
• Ovarian cysts
• PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome)
• Pelvic Floor conditions
• Surgical and cosmetic repair
• Sexual issues

These represent only a small portion of conditions that we investigate and treat. If you have any symptom you think may be related to gynaecological or obstetric health do not hesitate to get in touch.

When Should I See My Gynaecologist?

Gynaecology checkups should form part of a woman’s regular health screening. They are also highly recommended whenever you may be experiencing pelvic, vaginal or vulval symptoms. In the past there has been some embarrassment and awkwardness surrounding intimate discussion and examination. As society matures these stigmas are fading and there is no reason to feel awkward or stay silent about your personal health. Our expert team holds your consultations with the utmost respect and confidentiality.

Unexplained significant pain or bleeding should always be seen as a matter of urgency. But what of other, more common symptoms?

Many women can endure gynaecological symptoms throughout their life simply because they think there are no other options. Aside from the common concerns mentioned, there are further reasons that you may want to discuss your health with one of our gynaecological experts.

These include but again are not limited to:

• Intolerable period pain
• Lengthy or very heavy periods lasting a week or more
• Amenorrhea, or the absence of periods
• Vaginal discomfort, odour or swelling
• Urinary incontinence
• Contraception options

These are not concerns that you should have to cope with alone or without support. Our experienced team will guide you through each step of our one day clinic, providing you with the diagnosis.
