Hi I would suggest you go back to GP and ask for a referral to a BSGE centre. General gynaecologists tend to miss endo , as they only really look at reproductive organs, plus they don't always recognise all presentations of the disease. You know your own body so don't give up . You deserve the best treatment from the best possible surgeon. Good luck.

No Hun the BSGE centres are nhs. Some of the consultants do do private as well . So you don't need to pay anything.

Not what you're looking for?
