Private respiratory services
Mayo Clinic Healthcare provides private respiratory services for people with breathing problems, lung conditions and exercise-related symptoms. Our respiratory specialists diagnose and treat both common and complex pulmonary conditions, working with you to decide the next steps based on your needs.
Leading respiratory consultants
Our respiratory consultants are internationally recognised for their expertise in diagnosing a wide range of respiratory issues and pulmonary conditions. They have experience helping people with unexplained breathlessness and treating long-term conditions, and contributing to research and clinical publications focused on lung health.
Whether you are concerned about symptoms or need advanced treatment for a known condition, our team combines their decades of clinical experience to create a personalised treatment plan to help manage your condition and improve your quality of life.
Symptoms we assess
Some symptoms may suggest an underlying respiratory condition.
- Breathlessness
- Chest pain
- Chronic cough
- Wheeze
In the most severe cases, you should get immediate medical attention.
Respiratory conditions we treat
Our team provides diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of respiratory issues, from common pulmonary issues to complex concerns.
Expert respiratory assessment
Accurate diagnosis is essential to effective respiratory care. Mayo Clinic Healthcare uses state-of-the-art tools to assess breathing and lung function.
- Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET).
- Lung function testing.
- Imaging, including X-ray, CT scans and ultrasound.
Through this form of respiratory assessment, our specialists can come to the right diagnosis quickly, enabling them to form a treatment plan when it can be most effective. Results are reviewed by experienced specialists, allowing treatment to begin promptly and with confidence.
Multidisciplinary, integrated care
Many respiratory conditions overlap with other medical specialities. Mayo Healthcare Clinic’s collaborative model of care ensures that your respiratory consultants work with their colleagues across multiple disciplines to provide the best possible care. This will often include their colleagues working in:
- Cardiology
- Radiology and advanced imaging: this includes chest x-rays, CT scans and ultrasound
- Preventative and exercise physiology
- Immunology
This team-based approach ensures coordinated diagnostics and streamlined treatment planning, particularly for people with complex or overlapping conditions. This helps to avoid fragmenting your care and provides a more complete understanding of your health.
What to expect from your appointment
This will depend on the severity of the condition, but for concerns that are serious but not immediately life-threatening, you will have a 45-minute appointment with our consultants.
Here, you will have the time to outline your symptoms in detail.
After this, our private respiratory specialists will provide their opinion on what treatment is most likely to help. This may include further tests, many of which can be performed on-site in our London clinic just off Harley Street.
Private health insurance
Mayo Clinic Healthcare works with all major private health insurance providers, including AXA PPP, Aviva, BUPA, Vitality Health and WPA. Self-pay arrangements are also available.
