Prostate cancer is the most common male cancer in the UK, with 1 in 9 men being diagnosed each year. We offer prostate screening to provide a rapid diagnosis for patients with prostate problems to exclude more serious conditions. Men are not routinely offered Prostate- Specific Antigen (PSA) tests, which is why we advise men over the age of 50 years to have regular screens annually.
A PSA screen will include the PSA blood test along with other blood and urine tests to help diagnose any prostate problems as early as possible. If you have a raised PSA level, you may be offered an MRI scan of the prostate which helps to ascertain whether you have an enlarged
benign prostate rather than evidence of prostate cancer.
Erectile Dysfunction, also known as impotence, is the inability to get or keep an erection firm enough to have sexual intercourse. To experience ED occasionally is not uncommon, and can be more common during stressful periods of time. When ED occurs frequently this can be a sign of health problems that require treatment. Here at Highgate Private Hospital, we have London’s leading Consultant Urologists who will assess your individual symptoms and concerns and undertake any diagnostic tests needed to get to the bottom of what is causing the
issue. An individual treatment plan will be tailored and agreed with you.
Looking after oneself is a top priority for many, and a health screening is an excellent way of assessing your current health and wellbeing. Our health screens are designed with an individualised approach to women
with concerns in regards to their health. By undertaking a health screen you can reassure the status of your health, or potentially determine the onset or future risk of developing diseases. By catching risks or onset of
disease early, you are best placed for initial treatment or preventative measures to be taken.
A vasectomy is a permanent form of male contraception. The tubes that carry the sperm from the testicles are cut and the ends sealed. This means new sperm cannot get into the ejaculation. Here at Highgate Private Hospital, you can have this procedure done under local anaesthetic, sedation or general anaesthetic, this depends on your assessment and preference. It’s safe, effective and offers a permanent solution to your contraceptive needs. The procedure takes about 15 minutes and is one of the most effective methods of contraception that exists. A vasectomy will not affect your hormones, orgasm, or ejaculation, so there’s no reason why a vasectomy should
affect your sex life.
Varicose veins are very common, and up to one in three of us will experience them in our lifetime. Many factors can contribute to varicose veins, including other family members having them, ageing, occupations where individuals stand still for prolonged periods, previous DVT and gaining weight. Several treatment options are available to reduce and close your varicose veins, allowing the blood to reroute through to your healthy veins. The procedure is performed under a local anaesthetic, which means that although you will be awake, the entire area will be numb and you will not feel anything. Treatment typically takes an hour, and your consultant will advise you on the most appropriate option for your condition.
