Health Checks – Annual over 75 checks available on request. For patients not seen for three years and aged between 16-75 a health check will be provided at the surgery, by the nurse, on request.
Family Planning – Contraceptive care is provided by all doctors and Sister Baldwin. Emergency contraception is available up to 72hrs after unprotected sex by the Duty GP to avoid a long wait for an appointment.
Antenatal Care – You can have an enhanced 12-week ultrasound at the Harris Birthright Centre at King’s College Hospital – an international centre of excellence for fetal medicine. This includes:

  • A more detailed scan, carried out by a specialist fetal medicine doctor
  • Results within an hour (rather than waiting 7-10 days)
  • The opportunity to discuss your scan results with the same doctor, straight away
  • An assessment of the risk of having your baby too early or of developing raised blood pressure
    • A fetal DNA (Harmony) test if there is an increased risk of Down’s syndrome. This is normally only available privately and avoids the needs for the standard, more invasive test.
Post-delivery Checks for Mum and Baby – All babies aged 6 weeks old should have a baby check. This is run by a GP who will check on your child’s development and can answer any questions you may have. You can see your Health Visitor at the Cotmandene Children’s Centre every Friday between 9:00am & 11:00am
Mental Health – If you feel you may be suffering from a mental health issue please do not suffer in silence. Our clinical staff are available to work through your issues with you.
Travel Vaccinations
Flu Vaccinations – Flu vaccination is available every year on the NHS to help protect adults and children at risk of flu and its complications.
Non NHS Services – The National Health Service provides most health care to most people free of charge, but there are exceptions: prescription charges have existed since 1951 and there are a number of other services for which fees are charged. Sometimes the charge is made to cover some of the cost of treatment, for example, dental fees; in other cases, it is because the service is not covered by the NHS, for example, providing copies of health records or producing medical reports for insurance companies.
