"Wonderful service, highly recommended!"

I booked a Private Consultation with Dr Fran and it was so wonderfully refreshing to be listened to. Dr Fran was so friendly and helpful, she really renewed my confidence in discussing anything to do with my reproductive system. I am sure many of us have experienced being fobbed off when speaking with Doctors about anything to do with the above, which is very disheartening; so to be listened to (and not gaslit) was amazing.

I can wholeheartedly say that I recommend The Lowdown and have already done so to my friends and family.

"Best appointment ever. Feeling informed and empowered."

I've just discovered The Lowdown website - the place to go for advice on the minefield that is finding a contraception that works for your unique and changing body. I also booked a consultation with one of their experts. The NHS doctor I spoke to (for a full 20 minutes) cleared up all of my queries, gave me loads of helpful info and has set me up with an empowering plan of action. I've never felt more heard and been so informed - best appointment ever! What a fantastic resource for girls and women.

"Brilliant Women's Health Service"

Dr Fran made me feel super comfortable, didn't rush me, asked lots of questions and was clear and open. The follow up summary of advice was also very helpful. It was clear that Dr Fran is a specialist in women's health - her insights were invaluable and reassuring. This is a fantastic service which I really appreciated being able to access.

"The best contraceptive counselling I’ve ever had"

I had a consultation with Dr.Melanie Davis-Hall and it was the best contraceptive counselling I’ve ever received. It was open, informative and individualised. She happily answered all of my questions and concerns, providing me with both comfort and information. This is a wonderful organisation and I’ve recommended it to everyone I know.

"Highly recommend"

Had two appointments so far and had a great experience both times. Dr Fran really listened, didn’t rush me and asked loads of questions. She explained everything well and clearly and let me ask as many questions as I needed. Highly recommend

"I would 100% recommend Dr Becky"

I would 100% recommend Dr Becky, she was super lovely and incredibly informative on all the questions I had for her regarding endometriosis, the copper coil and local anaesthesia. She provided me with really useful guidance both in my consultation and with my follow up action plan. This service has been so so so useful in allowing me to make informed decisions!

"Dr Fran and the Low Down was incredible!"

I was recommended the low down by a friend after I’d seen my GP and even a private gyno about some contraception and hormonal issues I’d been having (mentally and physically) and all I can say is I’m SO GLAD I went ahead booked an appointment because Dr Fran was incredible. She made me feel so heard and understood and I instantly felt better just being listened to in that way - and that’s just the beginning! She is clearly so knowledgable and talked me through so many things that I had no idea about before. I received the best advice on everything I was worried about and felt so much clearer headed after. So thank you so much to Dr Fran everyone at the low down for doing what you do! I highly highly highly recommend and will shout about to everyone I know :)

"Fantastic consultation"

My consultation with Dr Fran was so helpful in making an informed choice about my contraception. I felt really listened to and involved in the decision and am confident that the plan we have put together will help reduce the issues I have been experiencing around my period (heavy and painful periods due to fibroids). I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. Thanks Dr Fran!

"Can’t recommend enough!"

I had a consultation with Dr Fran and she was LOVELY, but I have never felt so listened to at a consultation, especially regarding woman’s health. For someone who’s had endometriosis for 12 years and seen many many many doctors (most of whom were male), I got used to being fobbed off. But 20 mins with Dr Fran and I had some recommendations that I can try, based on her actually listening to my issues and from someone who knows what they’re talking about. This is such an important topic that the majority of GPs don’t pay attention to/have the knowledge of, so it’s such a good thing that this place exists. Honestly, bloody brilliant, thank you!

"Would recommend this to anyone!"

I honestly couldn’t recommend the Lowdown enough. I had a consultation with Dr Fran, and her advice was just invaluable. Totally recommend if you need some time to chat through things and actually speak to someone that listens! Thanks the Lowdown (& Dr Fran!).
