Clinics
Family Planning/Cervical Smears
Both the doctors and nurses will advise on family planning. Cervical smears
are carried out by our practice nurses by appointment. We would like all women
between 25 and 49 to have a cervical smear every three years and women between
50 and 64 every five years.
Joint Injections And Verrucae Treatment
Joint injections and verrucae treatments are carried out at the surgery. Please check with appointments for availability.
Child Health Surveillance Clinics
Clinics are available from birth to five years for health checks and vaccinations
on Mondays and on Wednesdays for weighing. These clinics are for healthy babies
only; please avoid bringing sick children to these clinics. Baby clinics can
be attended without an appointment for these regular checks, although reminders
will be sent out when these are due.

Our practice nurses are available by appointment for routine check-ups and
all newly registered patients aged five years and over are requested to attend
a simple check-up and to obtain vital family history information. Health promotion
advice is also covered to encourage a healthier lifestyle.
