Other Clinics

Childhood Immunisation Clinics

Immunisation Clinics are held by the Health Visitor weekly for childhood immunisations and child development checks. You will receive an appointment for the Health Authority when your child is due for immunisation. We expect all children to have the recommended vaccines which are medically indicated.

Antenatal Clinics

The Community Midwife runs an antenatal clinic at the practice weekly. Appointments can be booked by contacting reception.

Well Woman Clinics - Cervical Screening

Cervical screening is performed by the practice nurse or one of our female doctors if preferred. We operate a 'call and recall' system. In addition to a cervical smear test, breast examination, advice regarding life-style, menopausal problems and family planning, is offered, where appropriate.

Travel Immunisation

If you are planning to travel abroad you should contact the practice at least 2 months prior to your planned trip as you may require vaccinations. We strongly advise that you should not leave it until the week before you go as many vaccines need to be administered a few weeks before travelling to ensure their full effectiveness.

You are required to complete a Travel Risk Assessment Form and return it to the practice. An appointment with the Practice Nurse will then be arranged.

Some travel vaccines are ordered on a private prescription and these incur a charge over and above the normal prescription charge. This is because not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS.
