Clinics We Offer

DIABETES CLINIC

Cervical Smears

Cervical cancer is still a killer in the UK, but could easily be prevented by having regular cervical smears. If you are not sure when your next smear is due, please feel free to contact the practice and we will let you know. If your smear is overdue, please make an appointment with our practice nurse.

Diabetic Clinic

Our Diabetic Clinics are run by our Nurses and involved a consultation with them, followed by a further GP consultation.  The Nurses will contact all diabetic patients by telephone and will arrange for them to be seen for the necessary monitoring and reviews.

Wart Treatment

We recomment that the best treatment for warts are over the counter medication which can be obtained from your local pharmacy.  If you are having persistent outbreaks of warts, we suggest you arrange a routine appointment with a GP to discuss this further.
