Clinics and Services
Automated Blood Pressure Checks
We have an automatic Blood Pressure machine in the waiting room so that our patients can check their blood pressure when they come to the surgery, either for an appointment or on an ad hoc basis. Please take the printed slip in to your appointment with the doctor or nurse or give it to the receptionist who will ensure that it is entered on your records. The machine is situated next to the reception desk.
If you have been rushing or feel breathless when you arrive, please sit down for a few minutes before using the machine. It is important to follow the instructions, as for instance the correct positioning of your arm in the machine is necessary for an accurate reading to be achieved.
Cervical Smears
We advise all women aged 25 to 65 to have regular smear tests, by appointment with the practice nurse or a doctor.
Child Health Surveillance
The doctors and health visitors carry out checks on Wednesday mornings.

Family Planning Services
A comprehensive service is available by appointment with the doctors or practice nurses. The fitting of coils is done by special arrangement – please enquire. The ‘morning after’ pill is available by appointment with a doctor, and if required, this should be made clear to the reception team, to ensure a same day appointment.

These are available by appointment with a nurse or health care assistant:
- Any patient needing advice or help with weight reduction, alcohol and smoking.
