With inperson appointments, no wait times, and a modern clinic easily accessible in Westhill, Aberdeen we can provide you with the support you need.
Assessment and diagnosis of gynaecological problems, sexual and reproductive care, and a fertility assessment service are areas where we have a dedicated team of expert doctors and specialists who can support women of all ages. This includes Women’s Health Clinical Lead, Dr Wendy Knoops and consultants Dr Smriti Bhatta, who specialises in fertility, and gynaecology expert Dr Lucky Saraswat.
ROC also provides patients with fast access to experts in the diagnosis and treatment of all breast conditions from pain, through to the complex management of breast cancer. Our specialists can offer a detailed assessment in a single visit. We can quickly perform all the tests needed on site at our clinic, to assess whether symptoms are benign or malignant, removing long and anxious wait times.
We have installed the latest 3D mammography equipment which creates a three-dimensional image of the breast. This allows our specialists to see more and can identify cancer at an earlier stage. This imaging technique combined with artificial intelligence means ROC is the only private healthcare facility in the UK using breast AI in clinical practice.
Many women know of the physical changes that menopause can cause but are not always aware of the psychological issues. Our menopause specialist service is run by Dr Jane Johnston who is committed to helping women find the best treatment option. Jane has more than 26 years of experience in dealing with premenstrual syndrome, menopause, hormonal imbalances, hormone replacement therapy, testosterone replacement, and breast health.
We believe that it is important to keep healthy mentally, as well as physically and ROC Clinic also has experience managing and nurturing the mental health of our patients. Our clinicians have been involved in managing anxiety, depression, addictions, and many other conditions and are dedicated to an integrative model of wellbeing, where therapy is carefully matched to each individual and each condition.
