Hi there ladies. Has anyone got any experience of meno clinics NHS or private in the Midlands.

I think Dr Newson works from Stratford upon Avon?  If you put her name into the search box you might get some info or google her name?

I go to the NHS menopause clinic in Birmingham (Women's hospital at Edgbaston) even though I am based in Shropshire. My GP referred me. They seem knowledgable and are very nice, but it's not been a great service re appointments. I went last March and had a scheduled follow up appointment in September which was put back to January and then to February.

I looked at the Stratford upon Avon clinic but they have a three month waiting list. If I am paying I don't want to wait that long.

Shropshire lass.how long did you wait for your first appointment.?

[shrosphirelass]

The first appointment was quicker, about 6 weeks I think (and it had to go through the system as it was a different health authority)

I think you can get an appointment quicker than that at Dr Newson's clinic if you ring and say you will go on the list for a cancellation. I was looking yesterday and there was an appointment for 5th March online x

Baby - I second Dotty's advice - I rang Newson Health with questions about first appt this time last year and was given a cancellation for a few days later.
