About
Mr Ian Chilcott is a Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist with more than 30 years' experience. He offers private maternity care at The Portland Hospital, London's dedicated private maternity hospital, and gynaecology care at The Portland and Bishopswood Hospital in Northwood.
Private maternity care
Mr Chilcott cares for you personally throughout your pregnancy, from your first appointment to the birth and your postnatal check. You see the same consultant at every stage, whether you are planning a natural birth or a caesarean section.
He has particular expertise in high-risk pregnancy. This includes previous caesarean or difficult birth, twins, pregnancy after IVF, older mothers, and medical conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure. As a Senior Consultant at The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, where around 4500 babies are born each year, he manages complex obstetric cases every week.
Gynaecology
Mr Chilcott specialises in minimally invasive (keyhole) and vaginal surgery, which means shorter hospital stays and faster recovery. He treats endometriosis, fibroids, heavy periods, pelvic pain and prolapse, and performs laparoscopic, vaginal and abdominal hysterectomy, myomectomy, hysteroscopy and endometrial ablation. He offers prompt appointments for women with abnormal or postmenopausal bleeding.
He qualified from St Mary's Hospital Medical School in 1993 and has been a consultant since 2005. Patients value his calm, unhurried approach: he takes time to explain the options so that every woman can make an informed decision about her care. Chilcott welcomes patients with a wide range of concerns and is experienced in treating:
Endometriosis · Fibroids · Heavy periods (menorrhagia) · Pelvic pain · Prolapse · High-risk pregnancy · Caesarean section · Vaginal delivery · Hysterectomy · Hysteroscopy · Laparoscopic surgery · Endometrial ablation

It was quick to get an appointment with Mr Chilcott. He explained clearly what would happen during my appointment. Despite a wait in the scanning department, I was able to have one on the day to prevent me from coming back again. Mr Chilcott's bedside manner was calm and clear and he dealt with questions and queries. Overall, the appointment was a good experience for me as a new patient with Mr Chilcott.
I found Mr Chilcott online as he was one of the most highly rated surgeons in the UK for my particular issue (Ovarian Cyst removal) This was a procedure I needed urgently as I was working away for the rest of the year. From my initial consultation to post surgery, Mr Chilcott was extremely professional, caring and put me at ease instantly /throughout. I felt in incredibly safe hands and he was honestly excellent. The booking process was really easy and Mr Chilcott’s secretary was so attentive and brilliant. The entire process was a complete breeze considering I was really nervous about the surgery itself, and managing the pain after. No question was off limits and Mr Chilcott explained everything really well. If you’re considering private surgery - I couldn't recommend Mr Chilcott enough. There is no one else I would trust to do such an intricate surgery, and will be using him again for any further surgeries relating to my PCOS.
Much praise for Mr. Chilcott. Skillset plus his absolutely pleasant demeanor, willingness to consider questions and thoughtful, science-focused explanations. The abdominal full hysterectomy became manageable and less painful than envisaged. A big plus is his PA, Paula. She offers comfort and a much needed personal touch right through every appointment. Between the two, I felt like a person not just another patient.
Kind, caring and extremely gentle. He put me completely at ease and I felt very well looked after. Highly recommend.
We had Mr Chilcott’s support throughout the pregnancy, ultimately concluding in an elective c-section that he performed. We couldn’t have asked to have been better looked after. He was always highly responsive to any concerns and available quickly with guidance. The c-section itself went smoothly. Despite it being major surgery, Mr Chilcott and his team were very reassuring with their approach and now we have a beautiful baby boy who is healthy and happy.
Dr Chilcott looked after me exceptionally well and made me feel comfortable, reassured, and fully informed about the procedure. HIs professionalism, kindness, and calm manner helped ease any anxiety I had. I felt confident that I was in excellent hands and received outstanding care at every stage. I am very grateful to Dr Chilcott and his team and would highly recommend him.
My recent experience was excellent. Mr Chilcott explained everything clearly, made me feel comfortable, and the procedure went smoothly with great care and professionalism.
It’s very difficult to know where to start when trying to find a consultant. Mr Chilcott is fortunately an excellent choice. Highly experienced, professional and will do what is best for you. Everything you could ask for and more.
I have had the privilege of working with Me Chilcott for many years and can confidently recommend him as an outstanding Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist. He is reliable, highly knowledgeable, readily available for support and guidance, as well as being widely respected for his exceptional surgical skills. His professionalism, clinical expertise and commitment to patient care make him an invaluable colleague.
