About

Dr Ginny Ponsford is a highly experienced GP with a special interest in hormone therapy. She has provided women's healthcare in a number of very different settings around the world.

Her philosophy is centred on supporting women through this transition in their life, as she understands how much it can affect the whole woman; physically, emotionally, psychologically and sexually, and the negative impact it can have on work, family life and relationships. Dr Ponsford believes good quality holistic menopause care can allow women to continue to lead the life they want to live, as well as providing benefits to their future health.

As a British Menopause Society Recognised Menopause Specialist, who has also trained in bioidentical hormone therapy, she is perfectly placed to tailor a hormone balancing approach that perfectly meets individual needs.

Explanation

After rejection of 2 female NHS GP's at my GP practice to go on HRT, I had to seek out a way where someone would listen to me and I am so glad that I discovered Dr Ginny Ponsford at the Women's Hormone Clinic. From a detailed consultation (by Skype) to prescribing HRT and the kindness and confidence that Dr Ginny gave me, was in stark contrast to how I was treated at my own practice. Going on HRT has literally turned the clock back 15 years for me. I never used to sleep, had terrible hot flushes, day and night and feeling continually anxious and now I sleep like a baby, no hot flushes at all and feel calm and 'normal' again like the old days. It may not work for everyone, but it works for me like a charm. I highly recommend this practice and in particular, Dr Ginny Ponsford.

Explanation

Dr Ponsford was kind and considerate. She listened to everything I had to say, and explained both the medical options but when she was concerned at one of the blood test results, she recommended a referral back to my doctor and subsequently I needed to be assessed at the local hospital. It took nearly a year to resolve, but as soon as I was given the all clear to resume my HRT treatment, Ginny was willing and able to give me an appointment very quickly and I have the outcome I was looking for. I felt very safe in her hands and am pleased that I contacted the clinic for help. Thank you.

Explanation

I have described it prior. She seems nice but I felt there was no personal Service. Given the type of treatment offered at your clinic I would have thought this was first and foremost as every woman will have different symptoms and causes. The ‘leave it to you’ attitude of the blood test left me feeling unsupported and also wondering why I was paying such a huge amount of money given the practical side was not even handled by the clinic and the testing was outsourced!
