We run a variety of clinics at the surgery.  Below is a brief summary of the main services we provide:

* Please note that these clinics operate on a waiting-list basis and in some cases require a referral from your Doctor in the first instance.

Healthcare Assistants (HCAs)

 

You may book an appointment with one of our HCAs for a variety of procedures including dressings, ECGs, B12, weight checks and blood pressure checks.

 

Child Immunisations

Holiday Vaccinations

 

If you plan to travel abroad, you may require certain vaccinations.  As soon as you know you will be travelling, you will need to fill out one of our Holiday Health Planners which you can pick up from reception or download from the link below.  Once the form is completed and handed in, our nurses will determine whether you require any vaccinations.  We ask that you telephone the surgery 2-3 days after completing the form to find out your requirements.  We advise that you enquire about vaccinations well in advance as some of them need to be administered weeks or even months before departure.

Please note that there is a charge for some of the vaccinations
