Healthcare in the UK is entering a period of necessary transformation. For many years, the system has been structured primarily around diagnosing and treating illness after it develops. While this approach remains essential, it is no longer sufficient on its own. Increasing demand, an ageing population, and the rising prevalence of long-term conditions have made it clear that a more proactive model is required.
Maintaining good health is not simply about addressing symptoms when they arise; it is about taking a proactive and preventative approach. Regular health checks play a vital role in identifying potential risks early, often before any noticeable symptoms develop.
Dizziness and vertigo are common symptoms that can affect people of all ages. They may cause a sensation of spinning, imbalance, light-headedness, or feeling unsteady. While these symptoms can be concerning, many cases are caused by benign conditions of the inner ear, particularly Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV).
Men’s health concerns such as low energy, reduced libido, weight gain, brain fog, and low mood are increasingly recognised as potential signs of low testosterone (male hypogonadism). At Niva Medical Clinic, we offer a dedicated Men’s Health and Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) service led by Dr Varun Dravid, providing thorough assessment, personalised treatment plans, and careful long-term monitoring.
