Gynaecology Services

At the L&D we offer a holistic approach to women's care delivered through a range of outpatient, day surgery and inpatient services.

Our multi-disciplinary gynaecology department includes consultants, doctors, nurses and specialist therapists, all of whom aim to provide excellent gynaecological care to women, in a clean and comfortable environment, with care and sensitivity.

The L&D waiting lists are short and both our outpatient appointments and inpatient treatment takes place in a dedicated women's health building, separate from the rest of the hospital.
