Mr Richard Flint is a Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, renowned for his compassionate care and surgical expertise.
He graduated from Cardiff Medical School and completed his postgraduate training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology within the South London Deanery. His advanced training includes two prestigious fellowships: one in Urogynaecology at King's College Hospital, and another in advanced robotic gynaecological surgery at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital.
Mr Flint is a highly skilled surgeon with extensive experience in managing a wide range of benign gynaecological conditions, including endometriosis, adenomyosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, endometrial polyps, menstrual disorders, postmenopausal bleeding, abnormal uterine and intermenstrual bleeding, menopause, contraception, and fertility-related investigations.
