What to expect from your first appointment

I understand that struggling to conceive or experiencing gynaecological problems can be a very challenging time, and it takes courage to take the next step and see a doctor. 

Your first appointment will give you a chance to talk to me about your journey so far, how you’re feeling, and any worries or concerns you may have. Please feel assured that you will never be rushed during a consultation and that you will feel at ease when you see me. You really should not feel nervous about seeking a consultation, and remember that there are many options available to help you achieve success.  

​

I will take a detailed history to ensure I have a thorough understanding of your medical history as well as your general health and lifestyle. Based on the results from the initial assessment, I will recommend some tests and investigations. 

​

At your second appointment, we will review all the results from the tests you completed. I will spend time discussing these results and explaining their implications, ensuring you understand what your diagnosis means for you and empowering you to make fully informed decisions regarding your treatment options, so that together we will create a treatment journey that’s tailored and right for you.

For patients living further away or overseas, I offer telehealth appointments. For those patients who feel more comfortable speaking in other languages, I have an interpreting team that can accommodate any language needs.
