About

Professor Tom Bourne is a national and international authority on the use of ultrasound in gynaecology, the diagnosis of ovarian pathology and the management of early pregnancy complications. He is Chair in Gynaecology at Imperial College London,  Consultant Gynaecologist at Queen Charlottes and Chelsea Hospital, and Visiting Professor at KU Leuven in Belgium.

Tom sits on the management committee of the Tommy's National Centre for miscarriage research. He is medical advisor and trustee of the patient group, the Ectopic Pregnancy Trust. He is immediat past-president of the International Society for Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynaecology and CEO of the International Ovarian Tumor Analysis Group. Other than being busy clinically he has wide ranging research interests and supervises a number of Ph.D. students. He has edited seven books, published over 420 papers in international journals and furthermore is invited to speak at numerous international meetings on subjects relating to the use of ultrasound and diagnostics in gynaecology. Some of his current research interests include the psychological impact of pregnancy loss, diagnostic tests for ovarian cancer and the diagnosis of endometriosis.

Professor Bourne works at 25 Harley Street in central London and at Parkside Hospital in Wimbledon. He provides an ultrasound based gynaecology "one stop" service with a focus on providing an accurate diagnosis and management plan in one visit.

Very professional, considerate, and wonderful to feel he cared about my anxiousness on arrival. Fortunately my ultrasound proved there was nothing to worry about, but as always with all ages, the unknown is alway stressful.

I recently had a consultation and ultrasound with Professor Bourne, and was impressed not only by his expertise but also by his kindness and compassion. He was patient, explained everything very clearly, answered all my questions, and went above and beyond to fit me in sooner for reassurance. His team, Vicky and Tiffany, are also professional and well organised. I am very grateful to professor Bourne and his team.

Explanation

I have been a patient of Professor Bourne's since 2007, which is testament to the high opinion I have of his expertise, empathy and bedside manner. He responds swiftly to emails and is always a reassuring voice of calm. As far as the online presence of the Woman's Ultrasound Centre is concerned (which you mention specifically), I usually make my appointments directly with Parkside and have little contact with the Centre. Yesterday, two hours before my appointment, you sent me a reminder about the appointment, stating date and address but did not include the time, and warning me of the fees for cancellations made within less than 24 hours. This was not a helpful communication.
