CLINICS All four doctors provide antenatal
care, minor surgery services, child health surveillance and contraceptive services.
In addition the practice runs asthma, coronary heart disease, anti-coagulation
monitoring and diabetic clinics, annual flu/pneumovax clinics and is able to
perform non-NHS examinations by appointment outside surgery hours. Please telephone
the receptionist for details if you require one of these clinics. Please note
that the practice does not routinely offer well person clinics but patients may
have a health check if it is arranged by their doctor. The Health Authority runs several other clinics from the primary care centre premises. The exact details of these vary from time to time but present clinics include artificial eye/chiropody/speech therapy/antenatal classes/postnatal group/audiometry/ psychology/ostomy nurse/dentistry and community paediatric clinic. |
