Clinics and Services
We provide a range of services and clinics. Some services provided are not covered under our contract with the NHS and therefore attract charges.
Annual Asthma Review
We conduct regular asthma reviews for those suffering with asthma. It is a chance for you to talk to your nurse or GP about how you can manage your asthma symptoms better, check inhaler technique, talk about your risk of an asthma attack and update your written asthma action plan.
These are usually conducted by the practice nurse, at least once a year, and you should receive an invitation from the practice.
If your symptoms are deteriorating or you have any concerns, please make an appointment for the nurse or a doctor; if this is the case, please do not wait for your routine asthma review.
Frequent use of short-acting bronchodilators indicates poor control and increased risk of death due to asthma.
For patients who are due an annual asthma review, please fill in the asthma annual review form before your appointment.
Antenatal Care
If you are pregnant you can now self-refer to the hospital of your choice.

Travel Vaccinations
If you’re planning to travel outside the UK, you may need to be vaccinated against some of the serious diseases found in other parts of the world.
Vaccinations are available to protect you against infections such as yellow fever, typhoid and hepatitis A .
In the UK, the NHS routine immunisation (vaccination) schedule protects you against a number of diseases, but does not cover all of the infectious diseases found overseas.
What is the NHS APP?
The NHS App is owned and run by the NHS. It can be accessed by anyone aged 13 and over registered with an NHS GP. Once you have verified your identity in the app, you will have easy, 24/7 access to a growing range of health services and information. It doesn’t replace existing services – you can still contact your GP surgery in the usual ways.
