GP Consultations
Our experienced GPs provide comprehensive consultations for acute and chronic health conditions, offering both face-to-face and telephone appointments. Patients can book consultations through our online askmyGP system or by phone, with options for same-day urgent appointments and routine follow-ups. Our doctors work closely with nursing staff to ensure coordinated care for all patient needs.
Nurse-Led Clinics
Our highly trained nursing team delivers specialist clinics for long-term condition management, vaccinations, and health screenings. Services include diabetes care, asthma reviews, cervical smears, and NHS health checks. Nurses also provide travel health advice and administer immunisations for both adults and children.
Travel Vaccinations
We offer comprehensive travel health services including vaccinations for international travel, excluding Yellow Fever. Patients should complete our online travel form at least eight weeks before departure. Our nurses provide expert advice on destination-specific health risks and preventative measures to ensure safe travel.
Minor Surgery
Our minor surgery service treats benign skin lesions, warts, and other minor conditions requiring cryotherapy or removal. Conducted by Dr. Glasson, this service provides localised treatment without hospital referral, using both surgical and non-invasive techniques for patient comfort and convenience.
Joint Injections
Our Musculoskeletal Practitioners administer joint injections for patients with arthritis and other inflammatory conditions. This specialist service reduces pain and inflammation, improving mobility without requiring hospital outpatient visits.
