Consultation

During a consultation you will meet with one of our specialist surgeons to discuss your health concerns.

Personalised Care & Informed Health Decisions

In your consultation, the surgeon will take time to understand your health concerns so that they can address your needs and help you feel informed and confident about your care.

During you consultation your surgeon will:

  • Review your medical history
  • Discuss your symptoms
  • Perform a physical examination if necessary
  • Explain any required diagnostic tests (e.g., blood tests, imaging studies)
  • Discuss potential treatment options, from lifestyle changes and medications to surgical interventions

If a procedure is needed, you’ll also meet with a registered nurse to schedule it. Our goal is to ensure you are well-informed about your health and treatment options, providing a comprehensive evaluation and personalised treatment plan to address your specific concerns.
