Ask our GP
Our private GPs Dr Laila Kaikavoosi and Dr Peter Morris offer private general practice at Viveka for all the family. You may visit for a general check or personal 'health MOT', whatever your age; if you would like advice about specific symptoms. They work closely with the wider team of doctors and therapists at Viveka, supporting your health with an integrated approach that cares for you in body and mind.
Your GP will listen to your concerns and take your personal history. Depending on your needs, you may have an examination; and there is a range of diagnostic tests that can be done in the consulating room. For further diagnosis, your doctor may refer you to the on-site ultrasound scanning team, or to another medical consultant, such as a gynaecologist.
