Worrying Symptoms
18 Feb 2021

As a GP, I see on-going tummy pain as a common concern; it is not unusual but can be caused by a number of different conditions.

The pain could be coming from your bowels, and for women, your uterus or your ovaries, so it is important to discuss this with your GP if it is persistent and not getting better. If tummy pain accompanies any of the following this should not be ignored:

• Persistent or Worsening pain

• Tummy bloating

• Irregular vaginal bleeding (not as per your usual menstrual cycle or bleeding that has re-started after menopause)

• A change in your usual bowel habit (either going more frequently or not going as often)

• Weight loss or loss of appetite

• Nausea or vomiting

• Worsening reflux

• Blood in your stools

See your GP with any of the above symptoms, as they should not be ignored.

Testimonials

“

I recently had the most thorough health check from Measure Health. Dr Shonella Singh explained everything in detail, she took her time to go through my medical history and the health package I chose was very comprehensive. The consultation was thorough and not rushed, the examination was all very gentle and the MRI results were explained to me so well. I feel that Measure Health provides an excellent service for anyone who cares about their health and wants to be proactive. It’s great to know you’ll be either detecting a problem early on, or gaining reassurance that all is ok. In my case, I was lucky enough to be in the latter group. I learned a lot of health tips including self-examination tips, healthy eating advice and when/what to check for in the near and distant future. An amazing service and a worthwhile investment for patients! Thank you Measure Health!

This is a really great service which is conducted in a professional manner and gives the individual a thorough "head to toe" examination.

It's really very reassuring to have this service available to us as it confirms that everything is working as it is meant to.

If I could give 10,000 stars, I would! Dr Singh was professional, empathic and made sure all my questions and concerns were answered with detail. I find that most medical appointments can feel rushed and what stood out for me was that Dr Singh spent a while going through the questionnaire and results.

In comparison to the standard Bupa and Nutfield medicals, I felt this checkup was far more thorough. A great smile and the perfect bedside manner!

Dr Shonella Singh is very knowledgeable, pleasant, courteous and a good listener. She examined me thoroughly and addressed all my health issues giving me enough time to discuss all my concerns. I have never felt so comfortable with any other GP. On my follow up meeting she explained all my results thoroughly and and explicitly with a detailed written report. I highly recommend Measure Health and Dr Shonella Singh to anyone looking for thorough and high-quality care.

Shonella was so attentive and really listened to our health concerns and worries. The entire process was managed so well and I highly recomend her to others. Her level of knowledge and experience is hard to find and her kindness and ongoing care for her patients is outstanding.
