Cervical Screening & Breast Examinations

At our specialist women’s health clinic in Henley-on-Thames, we offer expert cervical screening ‘smear test’ and breast examinations—available as standalone services or as part of our comprehensive women’s health check packages.

We provide sensitive, personalised care in a calm, comfortable, and confidential setting.

Cervical Screening ‘Smear test’

A cervical screening ‘smear test’ is an important part of looking after your health, helping to detect any early changes that could lead to cervical cancer. We understand it can feel a little daunting, and we’re here to make the experience as calm and comfortable as possible.

As an experienced Community Gynaecologist and Women’s Health GP, Dr McQuillan brings the expertise and reassurance to support women, including those who’ve experienced difficult or previously unsuccessful cervical screening tests.

We can also talk about cervical screening ‘smear tests’ during your consultation and offer practical advice on how to make the process easier and more comfortable—especially if you’ve had a difficult experience in the past.

Your comfort, privacy, and peace of mind always come first.

Cervical Screening 'smear test' & Breast exam — FAQs

Do I need a referral for cervical screening or a breast examination?

No referral is needed—you can book directly with us by phone or email. 


I’ve had a difficult cervical screening experience before – can you help?

Yes. Dr McQuillan, our lead specialist, has extensive experience supporting women who have found previous screenings uncomfortable or challenging. We’ll take the time to make the process as calm and comfortable as possible. 


Are these appointments the same as a consultation?

No, cervical screening and breast examinations are focused tests and assessments. If you’d like to discuss your wider health, medical history, or symptoms in detail, we recommend booking a consultation alongside. 


Where are these appointments carried out?

All appointments are in-person at our Henley-on-Thames clinic, in a calm and confidential setting. 


What happens if my test or examination shows something of concern?

If your cervical screening or breast examination picks up any changes or concerns, we’ll talk everything through with you clearly and sensitively. We can provide a referral for private specialist care, or—if you prefer—write to your NHS GP so you can continue your care through the NHS. Whatever the next step, we’ll make sure you fully understand your options and feel supported throughout.
