Clinics and Services

Antenatal Care

Antenatal care is the care and help you receive from health professionals during the course of your pregnancy. It is important you take good care of your own health and that of your unborn baby during pregnancy.

When you find out that you are pregnant please register your pregnancy by completing the following online referral form or call the Midwifery team directly on 01865 220457. An initial appointment with your GP is no longer necessary unless you are on regular medication or have existing medical conditions which may impact your pregnancy. If that is the case, please contact us to request a GP appointment.

Asthma and COPD Clinics

Our practice nurses are specially trained in asthma and COPD care. During their clinics, they keep an eye on how you're doing and make sure your treatment is working well.

If you have asthma or COPD, it's important to have a check-up every year to review how you're feeling and how your treatment is going. If you have asthma, we'll send you a questionnaire to fill out about your symptoms. If it shows that your asthma isn't well controlled, we'll set up an appointment for you with one of our practice nurses.

We'll contact COPD patients when it's time for your annual review. We'll ask you to call us to schedule an appointment with one of our nurses.

If you are concerned about your asthma or COPD and need to speak to one of our nurses please request an appointment

Ideally, children should have their injections at the right age to protect them as early as possible and minimise the risk of infection.
