General Practice
Our experienced GPs provide comprehensive primary care including consultations, health checks, and chronic disease management. We offer same-day appointments for urgent needs and routine appointments up to seven days in advance. Our doctors have specialist interests in areas like women's health, diabetes care, and lifestyle medicine.
Prescriptions
We manage repeat prescriptions through electronic systems and the NHS App. Patients can choose collection points including Lloyds Pharmacy in Cambourne. Our clinical pharmacists review medication suitability and provide advice on proper usage and potential side effects.
Vaccinations
We administer routine vaccinations including flu jabs and travel vaccines. Our team provides pre-vaccination assessments and post-vaccination monitoring. We follow Public Health England guidelines for vaccine storage and administration.
Phlebotomy
Our phlebotomy service handles blood tests requested by clinicians for diagnostic purposes and medication monitoring. Patients require prior authorisation from their GP. We follow strict protocols for sample handling and laboratory communication.
Home Visits
Home visits are available for patients who are housebound or too ill to travel. Requests must be made before 10:00am. Our GPs assess whether a home visit is clinically necessary and prioritise visits based on medical urgency.
