You are welcomed into a warm and professional environment where patient care is paramount.  You will be asked to give us important medical information that is critical to our ability to be of value to you. We know that the issues we deal with are very personal and private. Our specialists are extremely sensitive about your medical problem and any awkwardness relating to discussing your condition. It is our aim to make the uncomfortable comfortable.

Should you need to be examined during the consultation,  your dignity will always be respected.  A nurse will be in attendance during most examinations and a chaperone service is always available.
