Quick answer
What is a private urology consultation?
A private urology consultation is a medical assessment for urinary, bladder, prostate, kidney, testicular or reproductive health symptoms. At London Private Ultrasound, the first appointment is GP-led and focuses on understanding your symptoms, reviewing your medical history, arranging appropriate urine tests, blood tests or ultrasound imaging, and advising whether specialist urology referral is needed.

Your consultation
What happens during your urology appointment?
The consultation is designed to identify the likely cause of your symptoms and create a safe, practical plan for investigation, treatment guidance or onward referral.
Step 1History
Detailed symptom and medical review
Your GP reviews urinary patterns, pain, bleeding, infections, prostate symptoms, kidney concerns, sexual health symptoms, medications and relevant medical history.
Step 2Assessment
Clinical explanation and risk review
Your symptoms are assessed in context, including infection risk, prostate health, kidney or bladder features, red flags and whether urgent or specialist care is required.
Step 3Testing
Appropriate urine, blood or ultrasound tests
Your GP may recommend urine testing, infection screening, kidney blood tests, prostate markers or ultrasound imaging depending on your symptoms and clinical findings.
Step 4Plan
Clear next steps and onward referral if needed
You leave with a clear plan, which may include treatment guidance, follow-up, imaging, monitoring or referral to a urologist when specialist care is required.
Investigations
Tests and scans that may support your urology pathway
Testing is personalised. Not every patient needs every test. Your GP will advise based on symptoms, history, examination findings and previous results.
Urine testing
May help assess infection, blood, protein, glucose or other urine abnormalities depending on your symptoms.
Blood tests
May include kidney function, inflammation markers, prostate markers or hormonal tests where clinically appropriate.
Ultrasound imaging
Kidney, bladder, prostate, urinary tract, testicular or penile ultrasound may be recommended depending on the concern.
Specialist referral
If symptoms require specialist management, your GP can advise onward referral to a urologist or urgent care pathway.
