FOR Women
Time to Listen. Time to Understand.
One of the greatest advantages of our Clinic is the time we can share with you.
Our appointments are designed to allow proper conversations—not rushed consultations. We listen carefully, explore your symptoms fully and explain your options clearly, helping you make informed decisions about your health.
Whether you’re experiencing:
- Menopause or perimenopause
- Fatigue or low energy
- Weight changes
- Poor sleep
- Anxiety or low mood
- Heavy or irregular periods
- Pelvic pain
- PMS or PMDD
- PCOS or endometriosis
- Low libido
- Breast health concerns
- Contraception or fertility questions
Or have any health concerns or questions about broader whole body and mind health, we provide thoughtful, evidence-based care that looks beyond individual symptoms to understand the bigger picture.
Expert Women’s Healthcare that puts you first
We believe understanding woman’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 woman’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 women 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 woman’s health professionals.
Whether you’re looking for a comprehensive health assessment, advice about hormones or menopause, help with fatigue, weight changes, menstrual problems, contraception, fertility, sexual health, or simply want to optimise your long-term wellbeing, our experienced GPs provide personalised care centred around you.
Expertise you can trust
Women’s health is one of our core specialist areas.
Our Doctors have extensive experience in women’s healthcare and have developed specialist expertise through many years of Clinical practice and postgraduate education. They manage women of all ages, from adolescence through pregnancy, menopause and healthy ageing, and provide evidence-based, practical advice tailored to your individual circumstances.
Looking after the whole family helps look after you
Women are often the centre of family life.
They arrange appointments, care for children, support partners, look after ageing parents and frequently put everyone else’s health before their own.
We understand that your health cannot be separated from the people around you.
That’s why we provide comprehensive GP care not only for you, but also for your children, partner and parents. We are open five days a week (soon to be six), making it easy for your whole family to access expert medical care from the same trusted practice.
Having one practice that understands your family’s medical history, provides continuity of care and is available when you need it removes stress, saves time and allows you to focus on your own wellbeing as well as theirs.
