Flu Vaccinations
An influenza vaccination is recommended for all patients over 65, and for patients with heart, lung or kidney disease, diabetes as well as residents of nursing and rest homes.
Please contact the reception staff in September / October for details of the vaccination dates and to make an appointment. If you are unable to attend the surgery, a home visit will be arranged for this purpose.
Non-NHS Examinations
The doctors are happy to carry out medicals, e.g. insurance and driving licence, by appointment outside surgery hours. Please contact reception for an appointment and details of the charges for these services.
Patients Over 75 Years
If you are aged 75 years or over, you can be seen annually, on request, either by your doctor, practice nurse, district nurse or health visitor. This can be arranged at the surgery or, if that is not possible, a home visit will be arranged.
