These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They do not store any personally identifiable information and do not require your consent under PECR. Without these cookies, certain parts of the website may not work as intended.

Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors interact with our website — which pages are viewed, how long people spend on each page, and how they arrived. This data is used in aggregate only to improve our website and the experience we offer to patients. These cookies are only activated with your consent.

Advertising Cookies

We use Google Ads and Meta (Facebook) Pixel to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and to help us show relevant information to people who have previously visited our website. These cookies may be used by those platforms to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant content on other websites.

These cookies are only activated with your consent. We do not use advertising cookies to target individuals on the basis of any health information or special category data.
