Cervical Screening
at Illuminate Clinic
Embarrassment makes women avoid smear tests,
according to BBC News, following a survey with 2,000
women, on behalf of Jo’s Cervical Cancer Trust. One
in 4 women skip the cervical screening altogether, increasing
to 1 in 3 amongst those aged 25-29. 3,200 women are
diagnosed with cervical cancer every single year, and nearly
900 die annually.* Being invited for tests every 3 years (or 5
years if over 50), is simply not reassuring enough for some
women and those over 64 don’t get invited by the NHS at all.
So Dr Sophie Shotter, Illuminate Clinic’s founder, wanted
to help change these shocking statistics by making cervical
screening readily available at her clinic: “These statistics are
frightening and we really shouldn’t rely solely on the NHS
to keep ourselves healthy. A friend of mine, Laura, had a
hysterectomy at age 30 and I want to do all I can to avoid
anyone else having to go through that. I also know 18 women
personally who have had abnormal smear tests. It’s shocking
that uptake of smear tests is at an all-time low. Many women
I know are so proactive about their health, and would choose
to have smear tests more regularly – this is an area of the
body we can’t examine for ourselves. We already promote
women’s health and well-being through our bioidentical
hormone replacement therapy services at the clinic, and this
felt like a natural add-on to help our patients feel reassured.”
Dr Sophie is offering her patients quicker results and tests
whenever required. The clinic will also offer HPV tests and
vaccinations, to help prevent certain cervical cancers caused
by the infections. Most HPV infections do not lead to cancer,
but they can, so Dr Sophie wants to be able to safeguard her
patients by offering services that they are able to have quickly
and conveniently.
