Women's health and contraception
Women’s health covers conditions experienced by people who were assigned female at birth. It is otherwise called obstetrics and gynaecology. Dr Chatfield has worked in this speciality and has additional qualifications from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (UK) to supplement his care. This section is also for those who do not identify as women but who may find the articles relevant, such as those who intend to give birth.

Services
This is not an exhaustive list of services - if you have questions about something that is not covered below please book in an appointment to discuss your needs.
Antenatal care
Pregnancy can be wonderful, and sometimes is can be challenging. Nothing can replace the care of a good midwife. Having a good GP support you through your journey can make all the difference to your care and wellbeing.
Contraception
Empowerment of bodily autonomy and contraceptive options go hand in hand. Contraceptives can be used for safe sex practices, and for medical treatment of gynaecological conditions like endometriosis. Navigating the large number of different options can be challenging and overwhelming. Book an appointment to discuss the best option for you and go through how to use them safely.
Menopause Replacement Therapy (MHT)
MHT, also known as Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), used to divide medical specialists, and isn’t talked about enough.
Dr Chatfield’s stance is that we should be empowering you to make your own informed decision on your life, your health, and your care. Book an appointment to discuss what options are available to you, including natural alternative therapies and treatments for your menopause.
Pregnancy counselling
Preparedness can make all the difference to your pregnancy journey, and will make sure it is memorable and special, and importantly, safe.
