Clinics and Services

We offer a range of clinics and services including those below. For more information, please visit our Health Review and Assessment Clinic.

If you would like to attend any of the below clinics, please visit our Consulting Room.

A number of clinics are held within the practice. These are arranged at varying times to suit the needs of our patients.

Asthma and COPD

These clinics provide help with the care of asthma and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), in terms of education, preventative measures, medication and management of the illness.

If you have been advised by the surgery to submit an review of your asthma, please use our online Asthma Review form. For COPD, please complete our online COPD Assessment form.

Cervical Smears

These are done by the practice nurses. Our policy is to test all women aged between 25-49 every three years, and all women aged between 50-64 every five years, as advised by national guidelines (unless the cytologist specifically requests repeating a smear more often).

Childhood Immunisations

The practice is totally committed to a policy of full immunisations for all children. If you have any queries about any aspect of the immunisations, please feel free to discuss these with a doctor or nurse. First childhood immunisations will be given after the 8 week check with the doctor.

Diabetic Checks

Most patients with diabetes are managed within the practice. Dr Ismail and two of our nurses are qualified in diabetes care.

Family Planning/Contraception

We offer a comprehensive range of services delivered by our family planning trained nurses and doctors, including contraceptive implants, coil fittings, contraceptive pill, emergency “morning after” advice, sterilisation/vasectomy advice. All consultations are strictly confidential.

If you have been advised, please complete our online Contraceptive Pill Review.

Maternity
