About
Mr Mohammad Masood is a Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist and Clinical Lead for Gynaecological Services at Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust — one of the largest NHS trusts in East London and Essex, serving a population of over half a million. He brings this substantial NHS experience to his private consultations and procedures at Nuffield Health Brentwood Hospital.
With the Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh (FRCS Ed), the Fellowship of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (FRCOG), and a specialist Diploma in Advanced Gynaecological Endoscopy, Mr Masood has a breadth of training that distinguishes him in his field. As an RCOG Part 3 MRCOG Examiner, he contributes to the national standards of the specialty.
His private practice at Nuffield Health Brentwood covers general gynaecology, advanced laparoscopic surgery (hysterectomy, myomectomy, endometriosis excision), menopause medicine, and aesthetic gynaecology. He provides each patient with a thorough, unhurried consultation and a management plan that is both evidence-based and genuinely personalised.
Areas of expertise:
Endometriosis
Mr Masood has a long-standing subspecialty interest in endometriosis — a complex, often misdiagnosed condition affecting approximately one in ten women. He offers comprehensive assessment including specialist pelvic ultrasound review and MRI interpretation, and performs advanced laparoscopic excision including nerve-sparing techniques and ovarian endometrioma cystectomy. Complex disease is managed within a multidisciplinary framework.
Uterine Fibroids
Mr Masood offers the full spectrum of fibroid management from watchful waiting and medical treatment through to hysteroscopic and laparoscopic myomectomy, and laparoscopic hysterectomy where appropriate. Fertility-preserving approaches are a priority for women wishing to conceive.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
Mr Masood is an experienced advanced laparoscopic surgeon. He performs total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH), laparoscopic myomectomy, and laparoscopic treatment of endometriosis and ovarian cysts as his routine surgical approach — offering patients significantly reduced recovery time, smaller incisions, and lower complication rates compared with open surgery.
Menopause and HRT
Mr Masood offers thorough menopause assessments and prescribes the full range of current HRT options, including transdermal body-identical oestrogen and micronised progesterone (the recommended first-line regimen in current UK practice), vaginal oestrogen for urogenital symptoms, and testosterone supplementation where appropriate. Many women he sees have been incorrectly told that HRT is not suitable for them.
Aesthetic Gynaecology
Mr Masood performs labiaplasty and vaginal laser rejuvenation as part of his aesthetic practice. All procedures are preceded by a thorough clinical consultation with full discussion of risks, realistic outcomes, and alternatives. A cooling-off period is observed before any procedure is booked. Procedures are performed in the Nuffield Health Brentwood theatre environment with full anaesthetic support.
