A NEW service for Huddersfield women is being provided from Almondbury.

The Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust has introduced monthly gynaecology outreach clinics at the Almondbury surgery.

Kaly Bhabra, a consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist with the trust, runs the clinics.

Coil insertion, polyp removal and hormone implants are among the procedures carried out.

Miss Bhabra said: “We know that many women find coming to a clinic in a community setting is more convenient and far less stressful than attending a busy hospital.”

The service at Almondbury is the sixth gynaecology outreach clinic provided by the trust.
