The Metabolic Clinic
Consultations
Cardiff Spire Hospital
All consultations are carried out at Glamorgan House, Cardiff Spire Hospital . All consultations are with Dr Datta. Consultations include a physical examination and he may advise further testing such as blood tests or heart investigations. For weight management patients he may recommend that you embark on the Spire weight management programme.
Making an Appointment
You may make an appointment without a letter from your GP, however some insurance companies will ask for this. Recent blood test results, medication details and other medical details will be easily accesible to your GP and speaking to them first may make your appointment with us more efficient. We will write to both you and your GP with the outcome from your appointment, unless you ask us not to.
Insurance and Prices
Dr Datta is recognised as a Consultant by all major medical insurance companies. If you have medical insurance, you should contact them to confirm that the costs of your consultation and any investigations will be covered under your policy. If you are not sure if our clinic is suitable for you, please contact us so we can discuss your clinical requirements.
