The doctors and nurses provide advice
on family planning, including oral contraception,
depot (injectable) contraceptive preparations and the
fitting and checking of caps and coils. Condoms are
available free of charge from the practice nurse.
Cervical smears
These are carried out by our specially trained practice nurses. We operate a call and recall system and all female patients between the ages of 25 and 60 will be sent regular follow-up appointments to attend for this investigation. You will receive written notification of your smear results, usually within 8 – 12 weeks of the test. If you have not had a smear within the last 3
years for patients aged 25 -49, or within the
last 5 years for patients aged 50 - 64 years then
please ask for an appointment.
