PRACTICE
NURSE TEAM
The practice nurse team offers a comprehensive range of nurse-led chronic disease
management clinics. These include asthma, diabetes, coronary heart disease, BP,
hypertension, travel, baby/child immunisations, women's health, cervical smears,
and routine immunisations. Appointments for these clinics are arranged throughout
the week. Please book via reception.
Foreign Travel
This practice is a YELLOW FEVER CENTRE, but because we have to order the vaccine
in bulk we can only offer this service to four or more patients at any one time.
A charge is made for this and other holiday vaccinations. Should you need malaria
tablets we will give you a private prescription. The practice nurse can also
advise you on precautions you should take when travelling abroad.
