PHH’s Ambulance Service provides medical response and transport for emergencies, hospital transfers and patients who require clinical support while travelling. Ambulances are supported by trained personnel and essential equipment for assessment, stabilization and safe transfer to appropriate care. Call for an ambulance when someone has severe chest pain, stroke symptoms, major trauma, breathing difficulty, loss of consciousness or another potentially life-threatening condition. The service may also support planned transfers for patients whose condition or mobility makes ordinary transport unsafe.

Behavioural Health Sciences provides confidential, evidence-based support for emotional, psychological and behavioural wellbeing. Our care begins with a comprehensive assessment and may include counselling, psychotherapy, behavioural strategies, medication management and family support, guided by each patient’s needs. Children, adolescents and adults should seek help for persistent anxiety, low mood, stress, trauma, sleep problems, changes in behaviour, difficulty coping with illness, or challenges affecting learning, work and relationships. Early support can strengthen coping skills, improve daily functioning and support a safe, sustainable recovery.

Bronchoscopy Services use a thin, flexible camera to examine the windpipe and airways. The procedure can identify infection, inflammation, bleeding, narrowing, foreign bodies or suspicious growths and may allow fluid, tissue or biopsy samples to be collected. Seek assessment for a persistent or unexplained cough, coughing up blood, recurring lung infections, breathing difficulty or an abnormal chest X-ray or CT scan. Large-volume bleeding, severe breathlessness or rapidly worsening symptoms requires immediate emergency care.

The Cardiac Surgery service provides specialist assessment and surgical treatment for diseases affecting the heart and major blood vessels. Depending on the diagnosis, care may include coronary bypass surgery, heart-valve repair or replacement, and surgery for selected congenital or aortic conditions, followed by critical care and rehabilitation. Patients should seek this service after referral from a cardiologist when tests show that surgery may offer the most appropriate treatment. Sudden chest pain, breathlessness or collapse requires immediate emergency care.

Cardiology provides comprehensive assessment and management of conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels. Care may include cardiovascular risk evaluation, non-invasive investigations, medication management, treatment planning, rehabilitation advice and long-term monitoring. People should seek specialist review for chest discomfort, breathlessness, palpitations, fainting, reduced exercise tolerance, high blood pressure, high cholesterol or abnormal heart-test results. The service also supports patients with coronary artery disease, heart failure, rhythm disorders, valve disease or a family history of heart disease, helping reduce risk and protect long-term heart health.

The Catheterization Laboratory provides minimally invasive procedures to diagnose and treat heart and blood-vessel conditions. Using specialised imaging and thin catheters introduced through an artery or vein, specialists may perform coronary angiography, angioplasty, stent placement and selected cardiac device procedures. Patients are usually referred after abnormal heart tests, suspected coronary artery narrowing, persistent angina or a diagnosed heart condition requiring intervention. Sudden chest pain, sweating, severe breathlessness or collapse should be treated as an emergency.

The Chemotherapy service administers medicines that destroy cancer cells or slow their growth as part of a personalised oncology treatment plan. It is intended for patients with a confirmed cancer diagnosis when chemotherapy is recommended by an oncologist, either alone or alongside surgery, radiotherapy or other treatments. Patients experiencing treatment-related fever, breathing difficulty or severe symptoms should seek urgent medical advice.

Chest Surgery, also known as thoracic surgery, assesses and treats conditions affecting the lungs, airways, pleura, mediastinum, oesophagus and chest wall. Care may involve diagnostic procedures, biopsy, minimally invasive surgery, open surgery and coordinated treatment with respiratory, oncology and imaging teams. Patients may be referred for suspected or confirmed lung or oesophageal cancer, lung nodules, collapsed lung, pleural infection or fluid, benign chest tumours, emphysema, chest trauma or chest-wall abnormalities. A surgical consultation helps determine whether an operation is appropriate and explains the available options.

The Day Surgery service provides planned procedures that allow suitable patients to return home on the same day, without an overnight hospital stay. It is suitable for patients whose surgeon determines that the procedure and medical condition can be safely managed as day care. Patients must follow fasting, medication, transport and home-support instructions and should arrange an adult caregiver after discharge when advised.

Dental Medicine provides preventive, diagnostic, restorative and specialist care for the teeth, gums, mouth and jaws. Services may include check-ups, professional cleaning, fillings, extractions, gum treatment, root-canal care, tooth replacement and management of complex oral conditions. Children and adults should arrange a consultation for toothache, sensitivity, bleeding or swollen gums, damaged or missing teeth, mouth sores, jaw discomfort, difficulty chewing or concerns about dental appearance. Regular examinations are equally important, helping detect decay and gum disease early while supporting lifelong oral health and confidence.

Dermatology and Aesthetics provides medical and clinically guided cosmetic care for the skin, hair and nails. The service assesses and treats acne, eczema, psoriasis, rashes, infections, pigmentation concerns, hair loss, nail disorders and suspicious skin lesions. Suitable aesthetic treatments may address uneven tone, texture, scarring and visible signs of ageing following professional assessment. Patients should seek care when symptoms persist, recur, cause discomfort or affect confidence. Any mole or lesion that is new, changing, bleeding or not healing should receive prompt medical evaluation.

The Diabetes service provides personalised, multidisciplinary care for people at risk of diabetes or living with type 1, type 2, gestational and other forms of the condition. Support may include blood-glucose assessment, medication or insulin management, nutrition advice, lifestyle planning, self-monitoring education and screening for eye, kidney, nerve, foot and heart complications. Seek care for elevated blood sugar, increased thirst, frequent urination, unexplained weight change, difficult-to-control glucose or diabetes during pregnancy. Ongoing review helps prevent complications and supports healthier, more confident daily living.

Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) provides assessment, diagnosis and medical or surgical treatment for conditions affecting the ears, hearing, nose, sinuses, throat, voice, swallowing, and head and neck. Adults and children should seek care for persistent earache, hearing loss, dizziness, blocked nose, recurrent sinus problems, tonsillitis, snoring, voice changes, swallowing difficulty or neck lumps. The service also manages infections, allergies and structural concerns, with treatment planned according to the patient’s condition and its effect on breathing, communication, sleep and daily life.

The Electroencephalography service records the brain’s electrical activity through small electrodes placed on the scalp. EEG helps clinicians investigate seizures, epilepsy, unexplained blackouts, unusual movements, episodes of altered awareness and selected neurological or sleep-related conditions. Routine, sleep-deprived or longer monitoring may be recommended depending on the symptoms. Seek assessment if you or your child experiences a first seizure, recurring unexplained episodes, staring spells or sudden loss of awareness. An ongoing seizure or failure to recover requires emergency care.

PHH Emergency Services provides 24-hour assessment, stabilisation and treatment for sudden illness, serious injury and life-threatening conditions. Patients are prioritised through triage so the most urgent cases receive immediate attention, supported by emergency-trained clinical teams and ambulance services. Seek emergency care immediately for severe chest pain, breathing difficulty, signs of stroke, major trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, loss of consciousness, seizures, severe allergic reactions, poisoning or sudden deterioration. Emergency care is intended for urgent situations that cannot safely wait for a routine clinic appointment.

Endocrinology diagnoses and manages disorders of the hormone-producing glands, which influence metabolism, growth, reproduction, stress response and bone health. Care may include hormone testing, medication management, lifestyle guidance and long-term monitoring. Patients should seek specialist review for thyroid problems, unexplained weight change, abnormal growth or puberty, menstrual or fertility-related hormonal concerns, osteoporosis, adrenal or pituitary disorders, and difficult-to-control diabetes. Because endocrine conditions are often long term, personalised follow-up helps control symptoms, prevent complications and support everyday wellbeing.

Endoscopy Services use a thin, flexible camera to examine the digestive tract and, when appropriate, perform treatment during the same procedure. Services may include gastroscopy and colonoscopy for detecting inflammation, ulcers, bleeding, polyps, narrowing or cancer, with biopsies or polyp removal when required. Seek assessment for persistent heartburn, swallowing difficulty, abdominal pain, vomiting, blood in the stool, unexplained anaemia, altered bowel habits or weight loss. Endoscopy may also be recommended for colorectal cancer screening.

Gastroenterology provides comprehensive care for conditions affecting the digestive tract, including the oesophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, pancreas, gallbladder and bile ducts. Assessment may involve laboratory testing, imaging, endoscopy and personalised medical treatment. Seek care for persistent abdominal pain, indigestion, heartburn, difficulty swallowing, nausea, vomiting, bloating, chronic diarrhoea or constipation, blood in the stool, unexplained weight loss or changes in bowel habits. The service also manages ulcers, reflux, inflammatory bowel disease, gastrointestinal bleeding and other digestive disorders requiring specialist evaluation.

PHH’s General Surgery service provides assessment and surgical treatment for a broad range of conditions affecting the abdomen, digestive tract, gallbladder, appendix, breast, skin and soft tissues. Treatment may include planned or emergency surgery using open or minimally invasive techniques when appropriate, supported by pre-operative assessment and post-operative care. Seek a general surgeon for persistent abdominal pain, a hernia, gallstones, suspected appendicitis, an unexplained lump, non-healing wound or a condition referred for surgical review. Sudden severe pain requires emergency assessment.
