GP Telephone Service
This service is only available to existing patients already under the care of one of our GPs at Menopause Health Matters.
In between appointments we understand that you may have questions or need reassurance, therefore we offer a ten minute telephone service as an opportunity to discuss anything that might be concerning you. Please be aware that this service is not a consultation, therefore there will be no follow up letter to yourself or your GP.
To book a 10 minute telephone call with one of our doctors please call us on 01292 281515 and we can arrange this for you. The cost of this service is £50.
Your Questions Answered
HELPING YOU WITH CHANGE.
Below are some of the questions we get asked most frequently. If there is any further information you require then please contact us directly.
Clinic and Appointments.
You do not need a referral from your GP to attend the Clinic. A detailed health history will be taken prior to your initial consultation.
Menopause consultations are currently not covered by private insurance companies.
Please bring details of any medication or supplements that you are presently taking. If you have had any blood tests done by your GP, please bring copies of the results. This may avoid unnecessary repetition and cost.
You are welcome to bring an adult relative, friend or supporter to your consultation or procedure should you wish. If you prefer your companion to wait outside, we have a private and comfortable waiting area with refreshments. To respect the privacy and comfort of our other clients we politely request that that you bring no more than one person to accompany or wait with you at any time.
All details of your care, including details of any prescribed medication, will be shared with your GP unless you request otherwise.
The Mirena coil can be fitted by one of our doctors in our discreet and comfortable specialist Medical Suite.
We provide blood drawing with our experienced phlebotomist at the Clinic.
Barns Crescent car park (KA7 2AY) is within a 2 minute walk of the clinic.
