At Shropshire Health Clinic, we offer private cervical smear tests to help you take control of your reproductive health. Smear tests screen for HPV (human papillomavirus), a common virus that can cause changes in cervical cells and, if untreated, may lead to cervical cancer.
Why test for HPV?
HPV is very common, but early detection of changes in cervical cells can prevent serious illness.
Regular screening is the best way to protect your long-term health.
Our private service means no waiting for NHS appointments and results are confidential.
How it works:
The test is a simple cervical swab performed by a qualified clinician.
If needed, follow-up advice and further investigation can be arranged immediately.
Quick Booking:
Appointments are flexible – book online or by phone.
Ideal for women who want fast, professional screening at a time that suits them.
Price: £250 (includes smear and HPV testing).
Take control of your health today – book your smear test now and get peace of mind.

We offer Coil removals, Coil fittings, implant removals or fittings in a non rushed relaxing setting.

Please Note:
You need a prescription for the coil or implant - this is not included in the price. You can get these from your NHS GP or requesting the private prescription from us.

Important Information
The contraceptive implant is a highly effective method of contraception but does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
As with any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects. These will be discussed with you during your consultation so that you can make an informed decision.
If you are currently using another form of contraception, please continue to use it as advised until your clinician confirms that you are protected.
