General Gynaecology

Consultant-led assessment and treatment across the full range of women's health concerns, from a first consultation to ongoing care.

Mr Rowan Connell, Consultant Gynaecologist
Understanding the Service

What is general gynaecology?

General gynaecology covers the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the female reproductive system. This includes problems with periods, pelvic pain, ovarian cysts, fibroids, endometriosis, prolapse, urinary symptoms, menopause and abnormal cervical screening results.

A specialist consultation typically includes a detailed history, focused examination and, where appropriate, investigations such as pelvic ultrasound, hysteroscopy, laparoscopy or smear tests, in line with NHS and Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists guidance.

The aim is to reach an accurate diagnosis quickly and to discuss every reasonable treatment option, including non-surgical alternatives, so you can make an informed decision about your care.

A single consultant-led assessment can clarify a long-standing problem and bring together symptoms that have been managed piece by piece.
