For patients with chronic conditions such as Asthma, COPD, Diabetes or Heart Disease we run specialist clinics with the nurses to review all patients annually. You will be contacted by the practice to arrange these appointments but if you have any concerns you can make an appointment to see someone at any time.
All our nurses offer cervical smear tests, childhood immunisations and foreign travel advice. For a Blood Pressure check please book to see our Health Care Technician. Alison, our Health Care Assistant among other things does the NHS Health Checks and some of the interim chronic disease management.
These are run on a Tuesday morning by Johanna Stones our community midwife from York District Hospital. Initial booking appointments (usually at around 10 weeks) are also available on a Friday Morning.
Some of the doctors offer minor surgery such as joint injections or the removal of problematic moles or other lesions. Cosmetic removal is NOT available on the NHS. Once a doctor has decided that you are eligible for this treatment you will usually be added to a waiting list and sent an appointment. This is to enable us to arrange for a nurse and a GP to be present and manage the number of such operations each month so that they do not compromise patient care.
Beatrice and Sarah are our Health and Wellbeing Coaches (Beatrice features in the video on the website below).
You may be offered a referral to them when you are seen in the surgery.
