About
About Halcyon
Taken seriously, and looked into properly
Halcyon was founded on something patients say to us constantly: that they had raised the same symptom several times before anybody investigated it. Our appointments are longer for that reason. We take the history properly, examine where it is needed and with a chaperone if you want one, and we tell you what we think rather than what is easiest to say. Halcyon looks after women’s health across every stage of life — periods and pelvic pain, fertility, pregnancy care, menopause, and the gynaecological conditions that too often go years without a name. Appointments are long enough to take a proper history, because that is usually where the answer is.
How we work
How we work
Long enough appointments
Forty-five minutes, because the history is where the diagnosis is, and it cannot be taken in ten.
You are believed
A great many of our patients have raised the same symptom several times elsewhere. We start from the assumption that it is real.
Privacy taken seriously
A chaperone offered for every examination, the right to stop at any point, and discretion in every communication.
Every option, including none
Deciding not to treat is a legitimate decision, and it is presented as one rather than skipped.
