Women's health
Most of what you are living with is treatable.
Heavy periods, pain, cycles that will not settle, an abnormal smear, the years before menopause. None of it is something you have to put up with, and none of it needs a referral. Start with what is happening to you.

Our centres are open Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm. By appointment. We can usually fit in a walk-in, but calling first means you will not wait. You do not need a referral for any of the above, and cash and medical-aid pathways are both available.
Tell us what is going on.
You do not need a diagnosis to book. Describe it in your own words, and we will tell you what the first visit would involve and what it would cost, before you commit to anything.
