About the service

What is fundamental to the service?

• The service will be operated in partnership with consultant Gynecologists from North Middlesex, Whittington Health and UCLH Trusts.

Each referral will go through administrative and clinical triage prior to appointment booking. Patients will be referred on to secondary care where necessary or have their treatment managed by the service.

We will run a variety of sessions across the week, from at least three different clinic locations. At each location, there will a GPwSI and a gynaecology consultant.
