Men’s Health

Expert Men’s Healthcare that puts you first.

We believe understanding men’s health is about far more than a single appointment or a list of blood tests. It’s about being listened to, having enough time to discuss your concerns, and receiving expert medical advice, answers and options from doctors who understand how your health changes throughout every stage of life. It’s also about recognising that men’s health should also be considered in the context of whole health and familial health and is not a standalone concern.

Edinburgh GP has created a different kind of private medical practice. Our Clinic has been carefully designed to be a calm, welcoming and discreet environment where men feel can feel comfortable discussing personal health concerns, knowing that they will get advice and support from a team of people who are amongst Scotland’s most experienced men’s health professionals.

Whether you’re looking for a comprehensive health assessment, or something more specific that you would like to see the doctor about such as prostate or heart health, or you would like the reassurance, help and advice, our experienced GPs provide personalised care centred around you.

Our personalised Health Screens provide a thorough assessment of your health, designed entirely around your health and wellbeing as a man. We will look at your current health and lifestyle as well as your medical history and any family/genetic risk of future illness. We will provide you with help and advice that you need to maintain good health and make improvements which will reduce the risk of future health problems or identify any hidden signs of illness. We can also carry out testicular and prostate cancer screening, ensuring early detection and prevention and we can check your heart health with coronary angiography.

Expertise you can trust.
