Surgery clinics

We offer a range of clinics and services at the surgery. There are some tasks you can do, such as health reviews, using our online forms.

Core services

  • General management of medical conditions
  • Health promotion advice
  • Emergency care if appropriate
  • Referral for other services, if appropriate
  • Urgently required care for temporary residents

Additional services

  • Cervical screening
  • Contraceptive services
  • Vaccinations and immunisations
  • Child health surveillance
  • Maternity services – we provide antenatal care in conjunction with the midwives at Great Western Hospital Maternity Unit. If you become pregnant your GP will refer you to our community midwife who will give you a ‘booking appointment’ at which the midwife will ask you a few questions and carry out some general health checks. You will be seen regularly throughout your pregnancy at the practice by both your doctor and the midwife. You will be given a ‘pregnancy pack’ as soon as your pregnancy is confirmed which provides lots of useful information.

Enhanced services

  • Minor surgery procedures 
  • Anticoagulation service
  • Coil fittings
  • Drug addiction therapy

In addition

  • Registered patients aged 16 – 75 who have not been seen for 3 years may request a consultation for a health check with the nurse
  • Registered patients aged over 75 years who have not been seen in the previous 12 months may request a consultation for a health check with the nurse
  • ‘No Worries’ clinic for young people who can drop in to see a nurse without prior appointment to see a nurse, in complete confidence.

Long term conditions

Long term conditions (LTCs) are conditions such as asthma, diabetes, stroke, hypertension, COPD, coronary heart disease, mental health, learning disabilities, and rheumatoid arthritis.

If you have been diagnosed with a long term condition every year the practice will invite you to attend for a review, usually within a month of your date of birth.  In the meantime you may find the links below helpful as they contain articles and videos explaining each condition and how you can better manage it yourself:
