Newly Registered Patients
All new patients are asked to complete a confidential
questionnaire to provide us with a summary of your medical history
as it could take us several weeks to obtain your medical records
from your previous doctor.
Please complete the questionnaire as fully and accurately as
possible. Patients Aged
16 to 75
We strongly support the trend towards health
education and screening. If you have not attended surgery in the
last three years, we would be happy to see you to perform a brief
health check and give you any help and advice that you require,
especially with respect to diet, exercise and other aspects of
healthy living.
Patients Aged Over 75
It is the practice policy to see all patients over
the age of 75 at least once a year, in order to perform a brief
health check.
This can be done at the surgery by your doctor or a practice nurse
or, if applicable, at your home by the district nurse.
Specialist Clinics
We run several specialist clinics, such as
anticoagulant monitoring, asthma, coronary heart disease and
diabetes.
Please check with reception for clinic times. |
