Private GP

28/08/2025 by Dr Amanda Northridge

Nearly one in four women experience severe menopausal symptoms that significantly disrupt their daily lives, yet many struggle to access timely, specialised care through traditional healthcare pathways. At Mayfield Clinic in St Albans, we recognise that menopause and perimenopause deserve expert attention and individualised treatment approaches.

Every woman's menopausal journey is unique. What works for your colleague or sister may not be the right approach for you. That's why our experienced GPs in St Albans prioritise comprehensive, personalised menopause consultations that address your specific symptoms and concerns.

Understanding Perimenopause and Menopause Symptoms

"The key to effective menopause management lies in early intervention and ongoing support. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions."

Private Menopause GP Consultation in St Albans

During your private menopause consultation, we take time to understand your complete health picture. This isn't a rushed 10-minute appointment. We discuss your symptom timeline, family history, and personal preferences for treatment approaches.

Our St Albans clinic offers comprehensive assessments including:

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and Treatment Options

HRT isn't the only solution, but it can be transformative for many women. Our private GPs in St Albans can prescribe various HRT formulations - patches, gels, tablets, or combinations - depending on your symptoms and medical history.

We also explore alternative treatments including:

All prescriptions are handled through our private prescription service, ensuring you receive medications quickly without lengthy waits.

Ongoing Menopause Support and Monitoring

Menopause management requires regular review and adjustment. Your symptoms may change, and so might your treatment needs. Our St Albans patients benefit from continuity of care with the same GP who understands their individual journey.

Through our Membership scheme, you can access regular appointments for ongoing menopause support. Members enjoy priority booking through our direct phone line and WhatsApp service, plus comprehensive medical records that ensure seamless care.
