Gynaecological Cancer

Cancers that start in a woman’s reproductive system are called gynaecological cancers.

At Airedale NHS Foundation Trust we offer all suspected cancer patients an appointment within two weeks of their GP referral.

We run a number of rapid access clinics for patients with a suspecting gynaecological cancer, including;

• Post-menopausal bleeding clinic

• Colposcopy clinic

All patients diagnosed with gynaecological cancer are discussed at a multi-disciplinary team meeting. This is where a group of doctors and other health professionals involved in your care and treatment discuss and decide together the best treatment options for you.

A team of specialist staff provides support to patients diagnosed with gynaecological cancers before, during and after treatment.

We also work closely with Leeds Teaching Hospitals. If you are required to have complex gynaecology surgery you will be transferred here.
