What is iron deficiency..

If the iron levels in your body are low you can become iron deficient this is the most common nutrient deficiency in the world. In women iron deficiency can be problematic due to heavy menstrual periods and is following pregnancy.

Over time, iron deficiency can mean that your body makes fewer healthy red blood cells, a condition know as Iron Deficiency Anaemia (IDA). There are many symptoms of iron deficiency anemia, however one of the main signs is feeling fatigued or exhausted because your blood is less able to transport oxygen around your body.

If iron deficiency is not treated there can be long-term consequences for your health. Fatigue and other symptoms of iron deficiency can also adversely affect your quality of life and reduce your ability to concentrate and be productive at work.

Thank you very much. Professional, informative and friendly staff really put my daughter at ease.

Nicola Wilson

I was warmly welcomed and seen very promptly despite arriving about 45mins early. It was quickly decided that an infusion would be beneficial and I was soon hooked up to the IV and receiving treatment treatment which was great. The facilities were clean, spacious and very pleasant.

Bridget Fenn

Everyone was very attentive and reassuring. The consultation was good and very informative about iron deficiency. It was great to have acknowledgement that my symptoms were (likely) iron deficiency related. I could have talked through more about them. The end result so far though has been amazing – I feel like someone cleaned my glasses!

Angela Zendel

Will be booking in another transfusion as soon as it’s needed. Thank you to Caitlin, I couldn’t have had better care leading up to as well as after my appointment. Absolutely brilliant!
