We see people aged 18+ for assessment, diagnosis, and treatment for all Oral and Maxillofacial concerns.
Many treatments can be provided on-site, while others may need to be carried out at an external venue. Any treatment will always be carried out by the Consultant you see at Bishops Wood Hospital.
Ideally positioned for people living in and around Northwood, excellent travel links make it easy for people to visit from other parts of Middlesex and beyond. (For example, we regularly see people from Berkshire and Hampshire.)
When you visit with us for your private Oral and Maxillofacial appointment, you will benefit from:
- Fast access to a leading expert – Waiting times to see an Oral and Maxillofacial Consultant via the NHS can often be quite long. We can help you avoid long delays in being seen by arranging a private appointment for you with an experienced Consultant.
- Time for you – As a guide, your private appointment will run for around half an hour (exact duration will vary). This provides the opportunity for much more conversation with your Consultant, and you will be able to discuss your symptoms and talk through any questions or concerns you may have without feeling like you’re being hurried out the door as soon as you arrive!
- Flexible appointments – Private appointments are available throughout the week. While most people appreciate coming to the hospital for an in-person appointment, we can provide remote appointments by telephone or video call if required (and where clinically appropriate).
- Consultant-led care – You will always see the same Consultant when you visit and will never have to worry about being treated by a more junior doctor. Your Consultant will oversee every aspect of your care, from initial appointment through to post-treatment follow-up. This ensures excellent continuity of care.
- A wider team – Your Consultant can discuss complex cases with specialists in other fields when required, including ENT surgeons, oncologists, and dermatologists. Quick and easy access to this wider healthcare team ensures you will always benefit from the optimal treatment and highest levels of care.
- Recommended by patients – In an independent survey, 94.1% of the people we treated said they were likely or highly likely to recommend us to their friends and family.
- Location - Bishops Wood Hospital is a 42-bed acute care unit, located within the grounds of Mount Vernon Hospital. We are very easy to travel to, and our on-site car park offers free parking for visitors.
If you are concerned about any symptoms in your teeth, mouth, face, jaw or neck, a private appointment can help give you clarity about the best way forward. Why not contact us today to book your visit?
Your Consultant will investigate the cause(s) of any symptoms or concerns, make a diagnosis, and formulate a treatment plan for you. If surgery is required, such as the removal of an impacted wisdom tooth or a soft tissue biopsy, this will be arranged for you as soon as possible.
We very much look forward to welcoming you to Bishops Wood Hospital and helping you to access the Consultant-led support you need.
