Private health care in Harrogate: New men’s health service and assessment launched
Brand new private men’s health service opens in Harrogate – and there’s opening offers to help you invest in your health and your future.
In November 2023 the Government announced the need for a national Men's Health strategy as men are so much more likely to have health problems.
But a new service launched by Duchy Hospital, part of the Circle Health Group in Harrogate, hopes to reset that balance, by offering dedicated, discreet services for men, with convenient appointment times to suit.
Duchy Hospital is launching its new Advanced Plus Men's Health Assessment service as part of Men’s Health Month.
Dr William Robertson, the lead clinician of the programme, said: “Some men neglect regular check-ups or delay getting symptoms checked, for a whole host of reasons. And when they do turn to the doctor, it’s common to focus solely on prostate and genital issues. While these are indeed critical, men’s health encompasses so much more—especially as we age.
“At Duchy Hospital, we’re proud to offer a cutting-edge Men’s Health Medical designed to address all aspects of your health with a personalised, comprehensive approach. Whether you have specific concerns such as heart disease, diabetes, or prostate cancer, or you’re experiencing general fatigue, mental health concerns, weight issues, or challenges with sexual performance, this medical is tailored to meet your needs.”
