At Top Gynaecologists Clinic, we understand the essence of cervical screening and early detection of cervical cancer. Several types of cervical screening tests we offer include the following:
The HPV test is a newer type of cervical screening test to detect the presence of HPV, a sexually transmitted infection that can cause cervical cancer. During the HPV test, a healthcare provider will collect a sample of cells from the cervix, which examines the presence of HPV.
The Pap test (also known as the Pap smear) has been the most commonly used cervical screening test for many years. During the Pap test, a healthcare provider will collect a small sample of cells from the cervix, which is probed for abnormal or pre-cancerous changes.
Co-testing is a combination of the Pap test and the HPV test. During co-testing, a healthcare provider will collect a sample of cells from the cervix for both the Pap test and the HPV test.
When you attend your cervical screening appointment, our practice nurse or doctor will perform the test in a private room. Our well-trained Private GP in London will make every effort to ensure that you feel comfortable and at ease during the test. The healthcare professional will use a small, soft brush to take a sample of cells from your cervix. You may experience slight discomfort during this process, but it is usually not painful. After the sample is collected, it is sent to a laboratory for examination.
