Private Fibroid Treatment Cost UK 2026: Consultation, Scans & Procedure Prices
What the hospital groups publish for procedures used in fibroid care, what is not published, and the NHS gynaecology waiting list in England.
Quick answer
- Fibroid care is several different procedures, from investigation to surgery. Each is priced separately, and only some have a published price.
- Nuffield Health, Ramsay Health Care UK and Spire Healthcare publish prices for diagnostic hysteroscopy and abdominal hysterectomy, shown below per operator.
- Myomectomy and uterine fibroid embolisation: not published by the operators we read.
Diagnostic hysteroscopy: what the hospital groups publish
What private hospitals publish for diagnostic hysteroscopy
86 hospitals across 3 operators publish a price for this procedure. Each operator’s figures are shown separately, against that operator’s own definition of what the price covers.
| Operator | Median | Across its hospitals | Hospitals | What the figure covers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ramsay Health Care UK | £3,226 | £1,485–£5,666 | 24 | Guide "from" price, inclusions not stated by Ramsay.Hysteroscopy. |
| Spire Healthcare | £3,268 | £2,884–£3,766 | 35 | Guide price, includes consultant fee and initial consultation.Diagnostic hysteroscopy. |
| Nuffield Health | £3,585 | £3,300–£3,970 | 27 | Guide price, excludes consultant fees, prosthesis and drugs.Diagnostic hysteroscopy. |
Why there is no single figure. These operators define their headline price differently — Nuffield Health says its guide price excludes consultant fees, while Spire Healthcare’s includes a consultant fee and an initial consultation, and Ramsay Health Care UK prints a “from” price without saying what it includes. Their published figures track each other closely across the procedures they share, but that is a pattern in the numbers, not a statement any of them makes. Averaging them would imply a like-for-like comparison no operator has confirmed.
Read from each operator’s own published price pages, 2026-11-07. Prices change and exclusions differ — confirm the total in writing with the hospital before booking. This covers3 of the UK’s private hospital groups, not the whole private market.

The NHS gynaecology waiting list
People on the NHS gynaecology waiting list in England have waited a median of 14.2 weeks, and 8 in 100 have waited more than 41.7 weeks; 60% are within 18 weeks (NHS England referral-to-treatment data, August 2026, 585,378 people waiting). This is how long people still on the list have waited so far, across every gynaecology referral, not a wait for one procedure.
What to ask
Ask whether the quoted treatment is diagnostic or therapeutic, whether fertility goals affect the option, and what happens if imaging shows a more complex pattern than expected.

Frequently asked questions
How much does private fibroid treatment cost?
It depends on the treatment. Nuffield Health, Ramsay Health Care UK and Spire Healthcare publish prices for a diagnostic hysteroscopy and an abdominal hysterectomy at many of their hospitals, and the tables on this page give each operator's median and range. No published price for myomectomy or uterine fibroid embolisation has been read, so none is given.
Can fibroids be treated on the NHS?
Yes. NHS treatment depends on symptoms, fibroid size and location, fertility plans and the local gynaecology pathway. The NHS gynaecology waiting list for England is shown on this page from NHS England's monthly data.
What affects fibroid treatment price?
Price depends on investigation, procedure type, anaesthetic, hospital stay, surgeon, complexity and whether fertility-preserving treatment is needed. Ask for the total in writing, including consultant and anaesthetist fees.
