Chronic Disease Management / Birth Month Review
Chronic diseases are long term health conditions that are generally progressive. Some diseases are managed by a specialist nurse, such as Diabetes, Chronic Heart Disease, Asthma, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Hypertension; whilst others are managed by our GP's such as Depression and Osteoporosis. These are not exhaustive and we provide care for a wide variety of conditions. All patients currently on a chronic disease register will be invited for an annual review within their birth month.

Minor Surgery
Some minor surgical procedures are able to be carried out at the surgery in our treatment room ; we have electrocautery and cryocautery equipment plus an operating couch for minor procedures including the removal of lumps and bumps and the insertion of various contraceptive implants. Appointments need to be made in advance after discussion with the doctor or nurse concerned.
Vaccinations
After a recent review of our activity with regards to ear syringing, and the availability of trained staff to carry out this procedure we have decided to cease offering ear syringing to patients, unless specifically requested by audiology services. This means that we will no longer be able to offer you an ear syringe appointment.
Due to availability of trained staff to carry out ear syringing procedures we have ceased offering ear syringing to patients, unless specifically requested by audiology services. Whilst we do not recommend any individual organisation, for your convenience we have provided a list of several local providers that we are aware of who provide ear syringing privately, and we attach details of these for you to contact should you wish to.
Please also find attached the advice for treating ear wax using softening drops which if applied regularly for several weeks can resolve the problem without the need for a syringe.
