A private cervical smear test at Great North Healthcare costs £45 for the appointment, with lab processing charges additional. We will give you a full cost breakdown when you book so there are no surprises.
Common reasons include: being overdue for an NHS smear with no appointment available, anxiety about the NHS setting, being a sex worker or working outside NHS registration, being post-menopausal or outside the usual screening age range, or simply preferring a more private, personalised experience.
The clinical test itself is identical. The difference is the environment, speed of access, and appointment experience. At Great North Healthcare's Newcastle clinic, you are seen promptly, in a relaxed private setting, by an experienced clinician who takes time to address any concerns.
Private smear test results from our Newcastle clinic are typically returned within 1–2 weeks, depending on the laboratory. You will be contacted with your result and any recommended follow-up.
The NHS invites women and people with a cervix aged 25–64 for regular cervical screening. If you are outside this range, have concerns, or have not had a smear test, our Newcastle clinic can conduct a private cervical screening at any age. Early detection of abnormal cells is always worthwhile.
