Blood Testing

Women’s health is multifaceted and complex. When there is complexity or uncertainty diagnostic blood testing can provide valuable insights and clarity. In recognition of this we have curated specialised blood testing panels to help remove the guess -work. These can be ordered directly and taken by a trained healthcare professional at a time and place convenient to you or at home with an autodraw kit.

Doctor name
Dr Fionnuala Barton MBBS BSc MRCGP
Founder, The Menopause Medic
I'm Dr Fionnuala, a GP and British Menopause Society accredited specialist in women's hormonal health. I founded The Menopause Medic because too many women spend years being dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told their symptoms are "just stress." They're not. Perimenopause and menopause deserve proper clinical attention — and so do you. Through my private practice, I offer thorough, evidence-based consultations covering HRT, testosterone therapy, diagnostic testing, and medical weight loss support, all tailored to where you are in life and what you actually need. This work is personal as well as professional. I've lived through the symptoms I treat, and I know how isolating they can feel. My promise is simple: you'll be heard, taken seriously, and given the time and information to make decisions that genuinely fit your life.
