Scope of care

Five areas of practice in one place in Warsaw Bemowo. Polish names of tests and procedures are given in brackets, so you can match them to a referral or a price list.

Gynaecology

Routine care and diagnosis

Annual check-ups, cervical screening and everything that follows an abnormal result. Contraception chosen to fit your life stage, not a leaflet.

Cervical cytology (cytologia)

Liquid-based cytology, with or without an HPV test. Every three years, or every five when combined with HPV testing.

Colposcopy (kolposkopia)

Magnified examination of the cervix after an abnormal smear. 10–20 minutes, no anaesthetic. A biopsy is taken if needed.

Gynaecological ultrasound (USG ginekologiczne)

Transvaginal as standard; abdominal for patients who have not been sexually active.

Breast ultrasound (USG piersi)

About 15 minutes, no preparation. The first-choice imaging test under the age of 40.

Contraception (antykoncepcja)

Pills, patches, rings, implants and intrauterine devices — fitted here at the practice.

Pregnancy

Antenatal care from the start

We follow the Polish antenatal standard, which means at least four ultrasound scans; in practice we scan at every visit. You will receive a pregnancy record book (karta ciąży) — the document Polish maternity units expect.

Antenatal care (prowadzenie ciąży)

First visit at 6–8 weeks, then every 3–4 weeks. All required blood tests, swabs and screening arranged here.

Obstetric ultrasound (USG położnicze)

First trimester (11–14 weeks), anomaly scan (18–22), third trimester (27–32) and after 40 weeks.

4D ultrasound (USG 4D)

Best between 24 and 30 weeks. Image quality depends on how the baby is lying.

First-trimester combined screening (test PAPP-A)

Ultrasound, blood markers, history and blood pressure between 11 and 13+6 weeks. Gives a risk estimate, not a diagnosis.

Cell-free fetal DNA screening (NIPT, wolne DNA płodowe)

From 10 weeks. Over 99% sensitivity for trisomy 21. Result in 7–10 days.

Fertility

Trying to conceive

Investigation starts after twelve months of trying under 35, and after six months over 35 — sooner if cycles are irregular, or there is a history of endometriosis, pelvic surgery or recurrent miscarriage. We see couples, not just women.

Hormone testing (diagnostyka hormonalna)

FSH, LH and oestradiol on days 2–4, progesterone about 7 days before the expected period, AMH on any day.

Ovulation disorders (zaburzenia owulacji)

Around 30% of cases. Monitored with two or three scans across one cycle.

Tubal patency — Sono HSG

Ultrasound assessment with contrast, in the first half of the cycle, ideally before day 12. Takes 15–30 minutes.

Preparation for IVF (in vitro)

One to two cycles of investigation. AMH and antral follicle count form the basis of qualification.

Surgery

Gynaecological procedures

Some procedures are done here at the practice, others in hospitals we work with — privately or under Polish public insurance (NFZ). Most are minimally invasive, though that does not apply to every operation.

Hysteroscopy (histeroskopia)

Inspection of the uterine cavity through the cervix, no incisions. 15–30 minutes. Polyps, adhesions and septa can be removed in the same session.

Laparoscopy (laparoskopia)

Keyhole surgery for endometriosis, ovarian cysts, fibroids and tubal disease.

LEEP (resekcja szyjki macicy)

Removal of abnormal cervical tissue with a wire loop. 10–20 minutes under local anaesthetic, home the same day.

Biopsies (biopsje)

Cervix, endometrium and vulva. Tissue always goes for histopathology.

Urogynaecology

Treatment for stress incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse, conservative and surgical.

Aesthetic gynaecology

Comfort and function

Treatments for problems that rarely get discussed: dryness after the menopause, discomfort during intercourse, changes after childbirth. Medical indications first, appearance second.

Labiaplasty (labioplastyka)

Day procedure under local anaesthetic. Back to normal activity within days, full healing 4–6 weeks.

Fractional CO2 laser (laser frakcyjny CO2)

Usually three sessions 4–6 weeks apart. An option when hormones are contraindicated.

HIFU

Focused ultrasound acting deeper than laser, usually in a single session.

Platelet-rich plasma and hyaluronic acid

Prepared from your own blood. About 30 minutes.

Caesarean scar treatment (blizna po cesarskim cięciu)

Release of adhesions, filling and laser for a scar that pulls or hurts.
