Medical services, Clinics and Non-NHS Services/Fees

All women between the age of 20 and 65 should have a regular smear test every three to five years. We send out appointment reminders to all of our patients to let you know when your next smear is due.

We send out appointments for regular checks and immunisations for pre-school children. This is to make sure that our doctors and health visitors can check that children are developing normally and that there’s nothing to worry about.

Our doctors and nurses give confidential advice on all aspects of family planning, including coil fitting and emergency contraception.

We offer a wide range of health screening for men and women at our surgery.

Women aged between 50 and 60 are advised to attend the Breast Screening Unit every three years for a mammography. This is to make sure we can check and detect any abnormalities as soon as possible. These appointments are sent out by the local Breast Unit.

Our antenatal and postnatal clinics are held at our surgery by our doctors and midwives.

We offer routine vaccinations and general advice to our patients travelling abroad.

It may take up to eight weeks for a full course of vaccinations, so please contact us in advance to give you plenty of time if you’re planning to go abroad where you need to be vaccinated.

Some services available are not covered under our contract with the NHS. This means that these services need to be paid for.

The full list of our fees can be found here: Fees For Non NHS Services

The practice aims to complete all requests within 28 days of receipt although some delays may occur.

For some services we may require payment in advance. We will however make you aware of this before any work is undertaken.  

Find out about local counsellors and advice services. You can access these services by speaking to your GP or the surgery’s receptionist.
