New Patient Health Check

The Practice Nurse will give all new patients a health check. This can give the Doctors an insight into your medical background, pending receipt of your full notes which will be forwarded to us automatically by the Health Authority. If taking repeat medication at the time of registration it is advisable to have your check soon after registering.

Family planning

All the Doctors offer pre conception and contraceptive advice, treatment and monitoring within their routine surgeries.

Maternity

The community midwife works as part of a team with our doctors to provide full maternity services from pre-conceptual care through to pregnancy, labour to postnatal care. The midwife and Doctors liaise closely. Antenatal care is provided by our midwife who sees patients every Tuesday between 1.00pm – 3.30pm. During the antenatal clinics both Doctors are readily available for advice and support.

Cervical smears

It is recommended that women aged 25 - 49 years have a smear every 3 years and women between 50 - 64 years have a smear every 5 years. We will notify you when your smear is due. The ideal time to have your smear is mid-cycle but if this is inconvenient you may come to have your smear at any time that you are not menstruating. An appointment should be made with the Practice Nurse on a Tuesday, Thursday or Friday.

Child health surveillance

All childhood immunisations are offered by the Practice and we encourage all parents to ensure their children are fully immunised. The Baby Clinic is held every Monday from 1.30pm to 3.00pm and is run in conjunction with the Health Visitor and Doctor. An appointment is necessary for the Doctor but not the Health Visitor who will help with any family health problems you may have.

Childhood Immunisations can also be given by our Practice Nurse
