Are Recurrent UTIs Impacting Your Quality of Life?
Recurring urinary tract infections (UTIs) can be painful and exhausting. If infections keep returning despite treatment, they can have a knock-on effect on your sleep, work, and overall day-to-day wellbeing.
At Mid Ulster Clinic, our experienced consultants provide specialist UTI assessment and treatment to identify why your UTIs keep coming back and help reduce the risk of future infections.
Book an appointment today and take the first step towards lasting relief.
What is Recurrent UTI Treatment?
Recurrent UTI treatment involves identifying why urinary tract infections keep returning and creating a personalised treatment plan to reduce recurrence.
Rather than simply treating individual infections as they occur, your consultant will investigate potential contributing factors, review your medical history, assess any previous test results, and recommend appropriate investigations where necessary.
Assessment & Treatments We Offer
We provide comprehensive assessment and management for patients experiencing recurrent urinary tract infections. Your consultant will recommend the most appropriate approach based on your symptoms, medical history, and individual risk factors.
Management may include:
- Detailed assessment of recurrent urinary symptoms
- Urine testing and infection screening
- Investigation of potential underlying causes
- Review of previous treatments and antibiotic use
- Lifestyle and hydration advice, along with preventative strategies
- Targeted antibiotic treatment where appropriate
- Vaginal oestrogen therapy for post-menopausal women
- Referral for imaging, cystoscopy, or other specialist investigations
Your initial consultation will focus on understanding your symptoms, confirming the diagnosis, and developing a personalised treatment plan.
Who Is The Treatment For?
You may benefit from a recurrent UTI assessment if you experience:
- Two or more urinary tract infections within six months
- Three or more urinary tract infections within a year
- Burning or stinging when passing urine
- Frequent urges to urinate
- Needing to pass urine more often than usual
- Pelvic discomfort or lower abdominal pain
- Symptoms that repeatedly return after treatment
- Recurrent infections affecting your daily life or wellbeing
Recurrent UTIs can affect both women and men, although they are more common in women. They may occur more frequently during pregnancy, after menopause, following sexual activity, or in people who have difficulty fully emptying their bladder.
Do I Need a Referral?
You do not need a GP referral to access private recurrent UTI assessment and treatment at Mid Ulster Clinic. You can book directly with one of our consultants, allowing you to access specialist advice without lengthy waiting times.
If you have been referred by your GP or another healthcare professional, we are happy to accept referrals and work alongside them where appropriate.
How Long Does Treatment Take?
The length of treatment depends on the cause of your recurrent infections and the investigations required.
Many patients receive an initial management plan during their first consultation. Where further tests are needed, your consultant will explain the next steps and expected timescales. Follow-up appointments may be arranged to review your progress and adjust treatment where necessary.
Our aim is to help you achieve long-term symptom control and reduce the likelihood of future infections.
Pricing & Payment Options
We keep pricing clear and transparent, with no hidden costs. Full details are provided in advance so you know what to expect before your procedure.
Cost
The cost of a recurrent UTI assessment starts from £260 with Consultant specialist or £125 with a GP.
The overall cost of treatment will vary depending on your symptoms and whether any additional follow-up appointments are required. Following your consultation, your consultant will explain any recommended tests or treatment options, along with the associated costs, before you proceed.
Payment options
There are two ways to pay for treatment:
- Self funded – Many patients choose to pay for their assessment and treatment directly.
- Private health insurance – Some health insurance policies may cover costs depending on your provider and level of cover. We recommend checking your policy details before your appointment.
If you need further information, our team is happy to discuss pricing and payment options before you book.
