Services

We offer cervical screening tests according to the national cervical screening program. At present, all women over the age of 25 years will be offered a screening test every three years until the age of 50 at which point testing is offered five yearly, as long as previous results have been negative. All women patients are encouraged to take advantage of this service. Test results are posted to patients from the laboratory as soon as they are available.

An annual check up with your doctor, especially if you have not needed to see a doctor recently, is recommended. Obviously, if you are seeing your doctor on a regular basis, this will not be necessary. If you should become ill, an excellent healthcare team will assist your doctor in caring for you at home.

Even if you should need hospital care, in many cases this same team can usually continue to look after you in the local community hospital. Practice doctors also visit a number of local nursing homes.

We recognises that teenagers may need the opportunity to discuss their health needs in complete confidence.
