Is HRT safe?
HRT is a safe and effective treatment for many women when prescribed appropriately. During your consultation, we’ll discuss the risks and benefits based on your personal and family medical history, helping you make an informed decision.
Can I have hormone testing done at your clinic?
Yes. We offer hormone blood testing, depending on your symptoms and treatment goals. Dr Julia will guide you on which is most appropriate.
Can aesthetics and menopause care be combined?
Absolutely. Menopause can impact your skin, hair, and body in many ways. We provide integrated care, meaning you can address both your health and your appearance in one place. Treatments like PRP, skin rejuvenation, and collagen support can complement your hormonal health.
How much does a consultation cost?
Initial menopause consultations are £285 with follow-up appointments £185.
Will you prescribe HRT or supplements?
Yes. If clinically appropriate, we can prescribe HRT or recommend non-hormonal alternatives and supplements. We take a holistic approach and consider your preferences and medical history.

Do you prescribe testosterone?
Yes, if it is clinically indicated we will discuss this on an individualised basis. We normally ask you to have baseline blood levels before prescribing Testosterone. Prescribing is based on British Menopause society guidelines.
Do you prescribe bioidentical hormones
We prescribe body identical hormones as per NICE and BMS guidance. Bio-identical hormones are unregulated and not endorsed by the British Menopause society, so we do not prescribe these.
