Patients benefit from continuity of care with assigned GPs and access to extended hours during practice opening times.
Vaccinations
We deliver NHS routine immunisation programmes for children and adults, including annual flu vaccinations for at-risk groups. Our practice nurses administer scheduled vaccinations according to national guidelines while providing detailed information about vaccine benefits, potential side effects, and post-vaccination care requirements to ensure informed patient decision-making.
Health Screenings
Our preventive healthcare services include NHS cancer screening programmes (cervical, breast, bowel), abdominal aortic aneurysm screening for men aged 65+, and comprehensive NHS Health Checks for adults aged 40-74. These evidence-based screenings help detect potential health issues at early, treatable stages through systematic risk assessment and diagnostic testing.
