Appointments for consultations will be sent from the practice. These are undertaken by the GP.
Childhood Vaccinations and Immunisations
Every Wednesday 14:00 – 16:00. These are carried out by the practice nurse.
Please note, if your baby is ill please check before attending. For your child’s safety it is ESSENTIAL that you have your child properly immunised.
Contraceptive Services
All the doctors provide advice on all forms of contraception. This, like all services provided by the practice, is completely confidential.
Asthma/COPD Reviews
Asthma affects at least two people in fifty. By understanding the condition and how to treat it, you can help yourself and your doctor keep your asthma under control. Reviews (by appointment) are intended to:
- Educate patients about their asthma/COPD.
- Monitor them and where possible improve their control and therefore their lifestyles.
- Carry out lung function tests.
Clinics are run every week.
Hypertension/Cardiovascular Clinic
High blood pressure is a condition which if untreated can lead to damage of the eyes and kidneys and increase the incidence of heart disease. If you suffer from raised blood pressure, the doctor may ask you to attend the practice nurse for advice and monitoring of the problem. Remember that you are welcome to use the 'DIY' BP monitor in the reception area.
Diabetic Clinic
These are held weekly on a Thursday and are run by the practice nurse (with doctor support if necessary). Most of our diabetic patients are now looked after at these clinics, although some with particular problems will still go to hospital.
