We offer a range of clinics and services at the surgery. There are some tasks you can do, such as health reviews, using our online forms.

The surgery offers a free and discreet chlamydia screening service and suggest all sexually active 15-24 year olds take advantage of this service to avoid potential medical problems later in life.
The service is of course open to all patients, irrespective of age.
Antenatal clinic
Antenatal checks can be booked routinely by calling the surgery and booking back to back appointments with the health care assistant, followed by a GP appointment.
Patients are reminded to bring a fresh urine sample with them.
Baby checks
Eight week baby checks are done by all GPs at the practice, during normal surgery hours.
