Clinics and Services on offer at the practice include:

• Family Planning
  A range of family planning services (contraceptive pills, coil and Implanon fittings, contraceptive injections and smears) are available here at the surgery. Please give the reason for your visit when making an appointment so that you are booked in with correct person.
• Cervical Screening
  Routine smears are carried out in accordance with current Health Service guidelines. You will be invited to attend a clinic run by our practice nurse or one of our female doctors.
• Adult Immunisations
  A tetanus booster is recommended every 10 years until you have had a total of five in your life.
• Children’s Immunisation/Infant Development Assessment
  We run child immunisation clinics and it is important that children are fully immunised. Thanks to immunisation, illnesses that are potentially crippling or fatal are now rare and can be prevented. Appointments will be allocated by the Health Authority for clinics at the surgery. If, however, you cannot make an appointment, please telephone the surgery to cancel. Another appointment will be sent to you. If you find it impossible to attend your offered appointment, please contact the practice nurse to see if alternative arrangements can be made.
  Child development checks are carried out by a doctor at around six weeks of age and thereafter by the health visitor.
