Quick and easy access to our team of private gynaecologists
Our private women’s health service offers you fast, direct and convenient appointments with a consultant gynaecologist.
Your private consultant may be able to reassure you that what you are experiencing is nothing to be concerned about, or they can discuss treatment options that could relieve your symptoms so that you can return to enjoying your life to the full.
We also have a wide choice of consultants who are specialised in various aspects, including the choice of a male or female consultant if preferred.
The Winterbourne Hospital offers a comprehensive range of private women’s health services for patients based in Dorchester, Weymouth, Bridport and the surrounding areas, including:
We understand that there is nothing more important than your health. We also understand that, as a wife, mother, daughter, sister or grandmother, you will make decisions not only about your own health, but also about that of your family.
With significant medical advances made in gynaecology in recent years, many treatments now have minimally invasive alternatives. Together, you and your consultant can decide the best route for you and develop a tailor-made treatment package to achieve optimum results.
Our rigorous hygiene standards and excellent nursing care means that you can feel confident in the care and facilities available at our hospital.
Gynaecology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the female reproductive system, including the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, cervix, and vagina. Gynaecologists diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions that can affect women’s health at every stage of life, from adolescence through menopause and beyond.
Common conditions managed by gynaecologists include:
Your gynaecologist can also provide preventive care, including cervical screening (smear tests), contraceptive advice, and sexual health checks.
Common symptoms investigated by our gynaecologists include:
The cost of a private gynaecology appointment at The Winterbourne Hospital varies depending on the type of consultation and whether any investigations or procedures are required. As a guide, an initial consultation with a gynaecologist starts at around £200.
If diagnostic tests are needed, such as an ultrasound scan, smear test, or biopsy, these are charged separately. The hospital will always provide a full, written cost estimate before proceeding with any tests or treatments, ensuring complete transparency.
Should you require treatment such as a minor procedure or surgery, we offer fixed-price packages that include all hospital fees, consultant charges, and aftercare.
Private medical insurance often covers gynaecology appointments and procedures when medically necessary. Our advisors can liaise directly with your insurer to confirm your level of cover. For self-pay patients, we offer flexible finance options so you can spread the cost of your care.
A standard initial consultation with one of our private gynaecologists lasts between 30-60 minutes, however if you need any scans or tests it may take longer. Our team will let you know how long you can expect your appointment to last when you book.
Accessing private healthcare is easy, whether you choose to pay directly or use private medical insurance.
If you are paying for yourself, we can usually offer an upfront cost which you can then choose to pay in full or access one of our easy payment options.
If you have insurance, we can arrange direct settlement with your insurance provider, although you should check in advance to see if your treatment is covered. For more information, visit our private medical insurance page.
