Non-NHS Examinations

The doctors are happy to carry out medicals, eg insurance and driving licence, by appointment outside surgery hours. Please telephone the surgery for an appointment. Please ask the receptionist for the charges for these services.

Counselling

A mental health counsellor/alcohol counsellor is available at the surgery. Please ask your doctor for an appointment.

Travel Immunisations

Please make an appointment at least six weeks in advance of your holiday to ensure adequate cover. A charge will be made for certain immunisations which are not covered by the NHS. A list of these charges is held at reception. If you have children travelling with you please contact the practice nurse at least 48 hours before your appointment, so we can arrange for your vaccination.

Flu Vaccination

An influenza vaccination is particularly recommended for patients aged 65 and those adults and children with heart, lung or kidney disease, diabetes, and residents of nursing and rest homes.

Please contact the reception staff in October for details of the vaccination dates and to make an appointment. If you are unable to attend the surgery, a home visit will be arranged to undertake this facility.

Cervical Smears

We believe it is important for women to attend cervical smear testing. This can be done by either of our practice nurses. Please ask reception for an appointment.

Smoking Cessation

Please make an appointment with the practice nurse if you are interested in stopping smoking.
