This blog discusses topics in health and wellbeing, along with our opinions.
In our rapidly evolving world, mental health awareness and consultation have become essential topics. Yet, despite advancements in awareness, the topic remains shrouded in complexity, often veiled by stigma and misunderstanding. At Niva Medical Clinic, we recognise the importance of mental health as a cornerstone of overall wellbeing. Our mission extends beyond merely offering professional mental health consultations; we are committed to fostering a culture where mental health is treated with the same respect and urgency as physical health.

Diabetes and prediabetes are health conditions that affect how your body regulates blood sugar. At Niva Medical Clinic, based in Stanmore and serving Harrow, Edgware, Wembley, Bushey, Watford, and Northwood, we provide expert screening, diagnosis, and management, along with personalised lifestyle support.
