A health screen built around you — with a female GP who has time.
An Essential Health Assessment with our enhanced women's blood screen: 39 tests, with female hormones and now thyroid, ferritin, vitamin D, HbA1c and CA-125 too. Then, once your bloods and report are back, an unhurried 40-minute follow-up with our new female GP, Dr Arathi Shanmugam. CQC-regulated. No referral required.
Most women have never had a health appointment that wasn't rushed. We changed that.
A standard NHS GP appointment is 9.5 minutes. Even most private GP appointments are 15–20. There’s no realistic way to discuss hormonal symptoms, fatigue, mood changes, weight, sleep, perimenopause, fertility concerns, and what your bloods mean — in that time. So we built a package that gives you 40 minutes with a female GP, after an enhanced blood screen, with everything in front of her.
1 in 4 UK women report symptoms they can't explain — fatigue, brain fog, mood swings, weight change, low libido, irregular cycles. Many have a cause that can show up on the right bloods: a hormone change, an underactive or overactive thyroid, low iron stores or vitamin D, anaemia, raised cholesterol, high blood sugar, or liver, kidney and inflammatory changes. This package checks for those things and gives you a proper plan.
Two appointments. Everything in one place. £203 less than buying it separately.
An Essential Health Assessment alone is £99. The Standard Screen Plus + Hormonal Health (Female) blood test alone is £233. A 40-minute consultation with a private GP alone is £170. Buy them separately and you pay £502. The package gives you all three for £299.

If any of these apply, the answers might already be in your bloods.
Many of the symptoms women tolerate as "just life" have a measurable, treatable cause. A complete blood screen plus a 40-minute female GP review is often the most useful 70 minutes you can give your health.

Compare this package to standard private health screening.
Most women’s health screens give you a blood test and a 15-minute summary. Some include a basic HA. Almost none include a 40-minute female GP consultation. This package gives you all three.

4.88/5 from 711 verified Doctify reviews.
"I’d been told for 5 years 'your bloods are fine'. The Vesey ran a proper screen and found I was anaemic with a clear hormone imbalance. A few weeks into treatment my fatigue and brain fog have lifted. I cried in the appointment because someone finally listened."
"40 minutes with a female GP felt like a luxury, but it’s what every woman should expect. The detail in the consultation and the written summary was outstanding. Worth every penny."
"At perimenopause and confused about whether HRT was right. The bloods clarified what was happening; the GP explained the options and didn't push anything. Calm, evidence-based, unhurried. Highly recommend."
Frequently asked questions — everything you might be wondering, answered.
What exactly do I get for £299?
Two appointments. (1) An Essential Health Assessment with a Health Advisor (blood pressure, BMI, body composition, lifestyle review) plus our enhanced women's blood screen, 39 tests, drawn at the same visit. (2) Once your bloods and report are back, a 40-minute follow-up with female GP Dr Arathi Shanmugam to walk you through every result. You also receive a written summary letter you can share with your NHS GP.
Who is Dr Arathi Shanmugam?
Dr Shanmugam is The Vesey’s newest female GP. She offers 40-minute consultations (three times the length of a standard private GP slot), with a particular interest in women’s health, hormonal health, and chronic-symptom investigation. Her style is unhurried and patient-led.
What's in the blood screen?
Standard Screen Plus + Hormonal Health (Female), 39 tests: female hormones (FSH, LH, oestradiol, progesterone, prolactin, testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin and free androgen index), thyroid function and antibodies (TSH, free T4, free T3, anti-thyroglobulin and anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies), ferritin, vitamin D, cholesterol and lipids (total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, cholesterol/HDL ratio), blood sugar (glucose and HbA1c), liver function (ALT, AST, ALP, GGT, total bilirubin, albumin), kidney function and salts (creatinine, eGFR, urea, potassium, chloride, phosphate, adjusted calcium), C-reactive protein (CRP), a full blood count, the CA-125 marker and a urinalysis.
CA-125 is not a stand-alone screening test for ovarian cancer; Dr Shanmugam interprets it alongside your symptoms. Some hormone results depend on the day of your menstrual cycle, so if you still have periods our team will advise on the best timing when you book.
How long between the two appointments?
Bloods are processed and the written report follows once ready. We book your 40-minute follow-up with Dr Shanmugam once all your bloods and the report are back — not before — so the consultation can cover everything in one go. You can pre-book a tentative GP slot when you book your first appointment, or wait for us to call.
Do I need to fast for the blood test?
Yes, please fast for 10 to 12 hours before your first appointment (water is fine), because the screen includes cholesterol, glucose and HbA1c. Take your usual medications. We also ask that you avoid heavy exercise the morning of your bloods.
What if I have a specific concern I want to discuss?
That’s exactly why this package exists. Add a note when you book, or mention it on the day — the 40-minute consultation has enough time to discuss anything from fertility planning to perimenopause to long-term contraception.
What happens if something abnormal is found?
Most findings can be managed directly by Dr Shanmugam — HRT discussion, hormone support, cholesterol and blood-sugar management, lifestyle plans. Anything that needs specialist input gets a fast-tracked referral to the relevant consultant (gynaecology, endocrinology, BMS-accredited menopause specialist, etc.).
Do I need a GP referral?
No. The Vesey is a CQC-regulated private clinic and you can book direct. If you’d like us to send a copy of the summary letter to your NHS GP, just give us their details on the day.
When is this offer available?
Until 1 December 2026. After 1 December 2026 the package reverts to standard pricing (£502+). Dr Shanmugam’s clinic is in high demand — book early to secure your preferred date.
Can I bring a friend or sister?
Absolutely. Book back-to-back slots and you both get the £299 price. We’ll line up your GP follow-ups consecutively too — many women find it’s easier to do this with someone.
An hour with a clinician who has time to listen.
This is the appointment most women say they wish they’d had ten years ago. Book yours now.
