Diabetic Clinic
Diabetic Clinic
We are trained to offer advanced diabetic care including many of the services traditionally provided in hospital clinics.
The clinics are run by a mixture of GPs, practice nurses and nurse specialists.
Not only do we provide all the nationally recommended screening to try and prevent complications but we also teach how to inject insulin and other modern injectable drugs. We can manage switches from different treatment regimes to try and give our patients the best possible personalized care.
Minor Injuries
Minor Injuries
Our GPs and nurses are trained to assess and treat minor injuries.
We can manage cuts, lacerations and sprains, assess possible fractures and treat minor head injuries.
This service operates between 8am and 6:30pm at either surgery and is open to both registered and non-registered patients.

Medicals
Medicals
If you need a medical for driving (HGV, bus or taxi), insurance purposes or recreational pursuits then our reception staff can book this for you.
These are not covered on the NHS and a fee is charged for this service – reception staff will let you know the cost at the time of booking.
We can only accept cash or cheque payment.
Ear Care
Ear Care
If your ears are blocked with wax our clinicians have been trained in the use of both ear irrigation and microsuction.
Irrigation uses warm water to clear the wax and microsuction uses direct vision to safely suck the wax out of your ear. You may choose either procedure and your nurse or doctor can give you further advice on this if needed.
Contraception
Contraception
We provide all methods of contraception including pills, patches, injections, implants and coils. Please make an appointment with a GP or advanced nurse practitioner to discuss this.
Emergency contraception is available and may be prescribed over the phone if appropriate.
When we are closed you can also get emergency contraception from chemists or from the out of hours service.
