About Ian Chilcott

Personal Profile

Mr Ian Chilcott is a Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist offering expert private gynaecological care at Bishops Wood Hospital in Northwood — providing patients across Middlesex, Hertfordshire, and north-west London with convenient access to a highly experienced London specialist, without the need to travel into central London.

A Fellow of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (FRCOG), Mr Chilcott qualified from St Mary's Hospital Medical School in 1993 and has held Consultant status since 2005. He brings over 20 years of specialist expertise to his patients at Bishops Wood.

Expert Gynaecological Care Close to Home

Many women in Hertfordshire, Middlesex, and the London suburbs face long journeys to access a genuinely experienced private gynaecologist. Mr Chilcott's clinic at Bishops Wood Hospital offers a premium, consultant-led alternative on your doorstep — with the same level of expertise he provides at The Portland Hospital in Central London.

Whether you are experiencing heavy or painful periods, have been diagnosed with endometriosis or fibroids, or require investigation for pelvic pain or an ovarian cyst, Mr Chilcott will provide a thorough assessment, clear explanation of your options, and a personalised treatment plan.

Surgical Expertise

Mr Chilcott has particular expertise in minimally invasive (keyhole) gynaecological surgery, performing complex procedures including total laparoscopic hysterectomy, myomectomy, endometrial ablation, and hysteroscopy on a weekly basis. His high surgical volume — maintained through his senior consultant role at Hillingdon Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, where he performs three operating lists per week — ensures consistently excellent outcomes.
