How does Choose and Book work?

Once you and your GP have agreed that you need to see a consultant for further NHS treatment, you can inform them that you wish to be referred to The Edgbaston Hospital.

Preference for Female Gynaecologists?

If you would prefer to see a female consultant due to religious reasons, prior sexual abuse, or just because of the intimate nature of the examination – we can help.

We believe this is a reasonable request. We also understand that there are many reasons why you would have more of a need for a female consultant than others. As such we have a number of female consultant Gynaecologists that are available to NHS patients at The Edgbaston Hospital via Choose and Book.
