For patients
Time to focus on you
Every woman experiences menopause differently. Consultations combine HRT, lifestyle medicine and CBT to address not just symptoms, but the wider impact on your life, relationships and work.
Before we meet
Book online at a time that suits you. We'll send you a medical history and symptom chart questionnaire, so we can make the most of our time together.
Your consultation
We'll discuss your symptoms and explain their underlying causes. Our approach follows British Menopause Society and NICE guidelines, with a full lifestyle assessment and time for all your questions.
Your treatment plan
Together, we create a personalised plan, which may include HRT or non-hormonal treatments. Ongoing care can continue with us or with your GP, as you prefer.
