Medical services and clinics

We offer routine vaccinations and general advice to our patients travelling abroad.

It may take up to eight weeks for a full course of vaccinations, so please contact us in advance to give you plenty of time if you’re planning to go abroad where you need to be vaccinated.

Please visit - www.travelhealthpro.org.uk

Enter your destination details and this will give you up to date travel health advice for that location including recommended vaccinations and if malaria protection is advised.

Please ensure you complete this step before the online questionnaire below. 

We need you to research the vaccinations you might require and list them on the form, even if you are unsure if you have had that vaccination in the past.  The website also includes really useful information about your travel and the destination.  Without completing this step and researching what vaccines you may need your form will be returned to you and we will be unable to book an appointment with our nurses.

Women aged between 50 and 60 are advised to attend the Breast Screening Unit every three years for a mammography. This is to make sure we can check and detect any abnormalities as soon as possible. These appointments are sent out by the local Breast Unit.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) screening is a way of checking if there's a bulge or swelling in the aorta, the main blood vessel that runs from your heart down through your tummy.

This bulge or swelling is called an abdominal aortic aneurysm, or AAA. It can be serious if it's not spotted early on because it could get bigger and eventually burst (rupture).

We send out appointments for regular checks and immunisations for pre-school children. This is to make sure that our doctors and health visitors can check that children are developing normally and that there’s nothing to worry about.

Some services available are not covered under our contract with the NHS. This means that these services need to be paid for.

The services that include charges are:

• Medicals for pre-employment, sports and driving requirements.
• Insurance claim forms.
• Passport signing.
• Prescriptions for taking medication abroad.
• Private sick notes.

Our reception staff and GPs will be happy to talk through the charges with you during your appointment.
