Men's Health Consultations in Newcastle
Many male health concerns require a focused consultation rather than a brief general appointment. At Newcastle Men’s Health Clinic we provide dedicated men’s health consultations designed to investigate common issues such as erectile dysfunction, urinary symptoms, testosterone deficiency, and prostate concerns.
Based at Blaydon Primary Care Centre, our clinicians provide extended appointments that allow time for detailed assessment, appropriate testing, and the development of a clear diagnostic or treatment plan.
Where appropriate, patients can be referred directly to our specialist pathways or to consultant urology care.
When to Seek a Specialist Men’s Health Consultation
A dedicated men’s health consultation can be helpful when symptoms affect sexual health, hormonal wellbeing, or urinary function.
You may benefit from an assessment if you experience:
- Sexual Health Changes: Difficulty achieving or maintaining erections, reduced libido, or changes in sexual performance.
- Possible Hormonal Symptoms: Persistent fatigue, reduced energy levels, loss of muscle mass, or symptoms suggestive of testosterone deficiency.
- Urinary Symptoms: Night-time urination, weak urinary stream, urgency, or other lower urinary tract symptoms.
- Prostate Concerns: Family history of prostate disease or symptoms that may require further investigation.
- Ongoing Health Concerns: Persistent symptoms affecting quality of life that would benefit from a structured medical review.
Evidence-Led Clinical Excellence
Our men’s health consultations are informed by guidance from organisations including:
- NICE
- European Association of Urology (EAU)
- British Society for Sexual Medicine (BSSM)
Where appropriate, consultations may lead to further investigation such as blood testing, prostate assessment, urinary testing, or imaging.
The aim is to provide a structured and clinically appropriate pathway to diagnosis and treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know which assessment to book?
If you are unsure which pathway is most appropriate, a men’s health consultation allows one of our doctors to review your symptoms and recommend the most suitable investigation or treatment plan.
What happens during the first consultation?
Your doctor will take a detailed medical history and discuss your symptoms in depth. Where appropriate, the consultation may include examination or investigations such as blood tests.
Following the assessment, your doctor will outline the most appropriate next steps.
Is my consultation confidential?
Yes. All consultations and medical records are confidential and stored securely within our clinical system. Results will only be shared with your NHS GP if you request this.
Can I receive treatment during the consultation?
In some cases treatment can begin immediately, for example with medication or lifestyle advice. In other situations further investigation may be recommended before treatment is started.
Do I need a referral from my GP?
No referral is required. You can book directly with the clinic for a private men’s health consultation.
