Menopause Clinic, HOLYWOOD PRIVATE CLINIC, NORTHERN IRELAND
Menopausal symptoms are wide ranging, can be incredibly difficult to deal with and are disruptive to your everyday life.
Everyone experiences menopause differently and therefore treatment needs are varied from person to person.
Here at Holywood Private Clinic we believe that no one should have to endure these issues and therefore we are delighted to offer a Menopause Package where we have lots of different treatments available for you.
The package includes a 30 minute GP consultation with Dr Grainne Doherty (face to face or via video-whichever suits your needs) where we will address your particular issues and formulate a tailored treatment plan just for you.
We will also arrange a follow up appointment where we can review your treatment and make any necessary adjustments if needed.
Book online or call us to arrange an appointment!
