General Medicine in Banbury

Joining the Dots for Complex Symptoms

Some health problems are straightforward. Others need a broader medical view — especially when symptoms don’t clearly point to one body system.

General medicine is often the right starting point if you:

• Feel unwell but don’t know the cause yet
• Have persistent symptoms despite initial treatment
• Have more than one condition that needs joined-up care
• Need a clear plan for investigations, monitoring and referral

Your consultant will take a detailed history, review medications and existing results, examine you, and recommend targeted tests to reach an accurate diagnosis.

Symptoms & Conditions We Commonly Assess

Our consultant physicians can help with many adult medical concerns, including:

• Unexplained fatigue, weakness or reduced stamina
• Fever, night sweats, recurrent infections, or feeling “run down”
• Unintentional weight loss or loss of appetite
• Shortness of breath or persistent cough
• Palpitations, dizziness, or blackouts
• High blood pressure and cardiovascular risk review
• Anaemia and abnormal blood results
• Swollen glands, inflammation markers, or ongoing symptoms after illness
• Medication reviews and complex long-term condition management
• Pre-operative medical assessment and optimisation

Investigations & Diagnostics

Accurate diagnosis depends on selecting the right tests — and interpreting them in the context of your overall health.

Depending on your symptoms, investigations may include:

• Blood tests and clinical monitoring
• ECG and cardiovascular assessment (where appropriate)
• Imaging such as X-ray, ultrasound and MRI (where clinically indicated)
• Targeted specialist investigations via referral pathways

Your consultant will explain what each test is for, what results may mean, and the likely next steps.

General Medicine Consultation

If you are self-funding your care, you can usually self-refer directly for a consultation. If you are using medical insurance, we can also support insured pathways (please check your policy and authorisation requirements).

During your first appointment, your consultant will:

• Review your symptoms and medical history
• Examine you and discuss possible causes
• Recommend appropriate tests and a clear plan
• Outline treatment options and next steps
