Consultations:
A new patient to Rowena Health consultation is currently £275 – £295 for a 50 minute appointment, either on line or in person. This does not include the cost of prescribed medication, or costs of recommended investigations.
A follow-up patient consultation is currently £175 – £180 for a 30 minute appointment. This appointment can review your care and is usually booked after 8-12 weeks and annually. This does not include the cost of prescribed medication or costs of recommended investigations.
If you have not been seen by the clinic for over a year, we will ask you to book a new patient appointment for a full review.
For a quick question, we are delighted to offer a trouble shooting, telephone appointment, lasting up to 15 minutes, which is perfect for in-between appointments, this costs £95. This is perfect to discuss a blood test result, or ask a quick question, but is not long enough for a follow-up or annual follow-up appointment.
Prescriptions:
We do not charge to issue a private prescription for a medication like HRT, during your consultation. If further prescriptions are requested by you, outside your consultations, then we charge a £35 administration cost. Please use the request a repeat prescription button on the website to do this.
Medication costs vary, the cost of the medication issued by us, like HRT, is not covered on the NHS, or by the HRT pre-pay certificate. The cost per month of each medication varies according to the product, and the dose you are taking, and it usually is between £10 and £40 per item. Prescriptions sent to your home incur a small extra postage charge. It is cheaper to get your HRT from your GP and we are very happy for you to do this if you prefer. You can apply for the HRT pre pay certificate for your NHS prescriptions which means many of your HRT products are covered for a cost to you of less than £20 per year at the moment. We are also happy to issue you with your medication privately if that is more convenient, but this is not covered by the NHS pre-pay HRT certificate. You can apply for the certificate at a pharmacy or online.
Emails:
We do not charge for emails but we are only able to deal with logistical issues by email. Any clinical concerns we ask that you book an appointment, as per our practice policy.
Additional letters requested for other specialists £30, we will send an invoice to you if you request this. A copy of your clinic letters will be sent to your GP free of charge so they are aware of our care and recommendations.
Private blood tests:
We offer a range of profiles for blood tests and only arrange ones which are necessary for you. Sometimes more investigations are needed we are ruling out some other causes for your symptoms. We can write and request blood tests are done at your GP, if they are happy to do so.
Blood tests can either be taken at a Guildford Clinic or using our national blood letting service, which takes venous blood, or you can select a range of blood tests using medichecks profiles, we can advise you which ones to use. Please see the FAQ on blood tests for further details.
Appointment cancellations:
These will be fully refunded if at least 48 hours notice during the working week is given. After this time it will be difficult for us to fill your appointment time so a refund will not be possible. It is possible to change your appointment from a face to face to a virtual appointment, please email us.
