Cervical screening — previously known as a Pap smear — checks for early changes in the cervix before they have a chance to develop into something more serious. It’s one of the simplest and most effective forms of preventive healthcare available to women.

Our GPs perform cervical screening tests onsite in a comfortable, private setting, and we also offer self-collection for eligible patients who would prefer to take their own sample.

How We Can Help

We know screening can feel uncomfortable to think about, let alone book. Our doctors take the time to explain the process clearly, answer any questions without judgement, and offer self-collection where it’s a suitable and more comfortable alternative — so putting off your screening for longer than you’d like isn’t necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often do I need a cervical screening test?

Most people are due for a test every five years from age 25, though this can vary — your doctor can confirm what’s right for you

What is self-collection?

Self-collection lets eligible patients take their own vaginal swab in a private room, rather than having a doctor perform the test. Your doctor can tell you if you’re eligible.
