Clinics and Services

We provide a range of services and clinics.

In addition to general medical consultations, we are pleased to be able to provide specialist clinics and services covering the following areas:

  • Antenatal
    The doctors, working in liaison with the community midwives, and hospital services, are able to provide comprehensive care throughout pregnancy. The midwife attends the surgery on alternate Tuesday afternoons for routine ante-natal care.
  • Asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
    Nurse led clinics for those with respiratory problems. In order to obtain maximum benefit from therapy, it is essential that regular checks are performed to achieve optimum control of the condition.
  • Audiology
    There is no audiologist clinic at the surgery. Patients must now see their doctor who will make an appointment with the audiologist for a hearing test at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King’s Lynn. Routine repairs to hearing aids and provision of spare batteries are still available at the surgery.
  • Blood Pressure, Heart Disease and Diabetic Clinics
    Patients who are being treated for these diseases will be recalled to the clinics for regular checks. There are annual checks by the doctors unless referrals to them are made more frequently and intermediate checks by a nurse 3-6 monthly.
  • Child Health
    Doctors carry out examinations at 8 weeks, to ensure that your child is developing normally and is designed to coincide with first vaccinations.
  • Counselling
    You can be referred by any of the medical staff if you need to see our counsellor.
  • Cryotherapy
    As opposed to surgical removal, some small skin lesions can be removed by applying liquid nitrogen spray. Referral is through your doctor but the treatment may be applied by the practice nurse.
  • Dietician
    A dietician from Queen Elizabeth Hospital, King’s Lynn attends the surgery twice a month. You may be referred by your doctor for a wide variety of dietary advice.
