Cholesterol Issues?
If you are worried about high cholesterol and want a comprehensive cholesterol checkup then get in touch today and I can help you.
I can help you understand what your cholesterol levels mean and develop a treatment plan to substantially lower your risk.
Should I be my cholesterol?
Your body needs cholesterol to build healthy cells. However, high levels of cholesterol can increase your risk of heart disease.
You can also develop fatty deposits in your blood vessels. If those deposits break suddenly they can form a clot that can cause a heart attack or stroke.
If you are worried about your cholesterol levels book a telephone appointment to talk to me. I can:
- Arrange a comprehensive cholesterol test
- Explain your results and what they mean
- Offer you the best treatment options
- Re-check your levels after 6 months
How I can help today

You can book a telephone consultation with me without speaking to your GP
If you are worried and want to have your symptoms checked out quickly book a telephone consultation with me online. Visit my 'Fees & Treatment Prices' page for more information about the cost of choosing this option.
-
I will investigate your symptoms & analyse your risk factors
An online telephone consultation gives me time to examine: your symptoms; your lifestyle; your family medical history and any pre-existing medical conditions you may have. After your examination, I can discuss whether any further investigation is needed and talk to you about what should happen next.
-
If needed I can discuss additional tests and treatment
Often additional tests are required in order to make a quick, correct diagnosis and to determine and begin your personal treatment plan. In some cases I can arrange these for you. I will talk to you about what is involved and how to arrange them.

Frequently asked ...

Yes. You don't need anyone's permission to book a consultation with me. If you have concerns about your health you can book a consultation at a time that best suits you using my online booking system. You don't need a GP referral and you don't have to wait.
I can cover most of the things that you would normally expect to happen in a physical, face to face consultation.
I will take a detailed history and go over the symptoms and health issues that you have. If further tests are required I can advise you what is required and in some cases arrange those for you. I will address your concerns with a professional medical assessment of your condition.
I can give you advice about medications and issue prescriptions if required.
A general cardiology telephone consultation costs £95. You can pay this when you book your appointment online. You can change the appointment details up to 24 hours beforehand. Additional tests may be required and there are full details here on my 'Fees and Treatment Prices' page.
You will immediately receive a booking confirmation confirming the day and time for your telephone consultation. My practice manager will confirm your appointment details by email during office hours.
Please remember to have your contact telephone/mobile with you at all times 15 minutes before your appointment time as we tend to run on schedule!
I will attempt to call you three times. If there is a problem don't worry my practice team will keep trying and can rearrange the appointment as necessary.
If further tests or treatments are required you have two options. I can book these for you privately or if you would prefer a referral back into the appropriate NHS waiting list I can advise how you can go about it, and in some cases makes the referral for you. I'll discuss both options with you thoroughly before we finish though so you will know exactly what is going to happen next.
