Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is the world’s commonest STD and causes warts and also cervical, vulval, anal and other types of pre-cancers and cancers.
The HPV virus has many subtypes, the most common of which are types 6, 11, 16 and 18.
External genital warts take a long time to clear, require intensive treatment and are often very distressing.
Infection with the virus is typically transient so a person may clear an infection after a short period. Because we will often periodically clear infections it is possible to use this knowledge to vaccinate against the virus and also reinfection.
Genital warts treatment using liquid nitrogen, laser, curetting, surgical excision and also imiquimod cream is available routinely.
Dr Dan are keen to vaccinate against HPV at the earliest opportunity.
Our preferred routine is to use PCR testing to identify if a person already has the HPV virus. If there is no proven infection then we would be keen to immunise using the vaccine called Gardasil 9. This is a course of three vaccinations over 6 months.
Wow! Dr. Dan was extremely knowledgeable and attentive to my health and well being. I’m so glad to have found him!
I have been going to Dr Wright for a number of years now. He is highly knowledgeable, compassionate, open minded and efficient, I couldn’t recommend him highly enough
I have been a patient of Doctor Dan for some time and continue to consult with him despite having left the UK. Dan has the enthusiasm and energy of a young man, whilst taking the holistic “physician” approach of an old school family doctor, equipped with the most modern insights and technology.
Dr Jain was great. Expert knowledge with practical advice
