We run many clinics for the management of chronic diseases and offer a wide variety of medical services.
Our Practice has an extensive Health Care Preventative Medical Service, run by the Practice Nurses and the Doctors.
Antenatal Clinic
Antenatal care is provided by our midwife. Clinics are held on Tuesdays AM and PM and Wednesdays AM.
Ad Hoc appointments can be made for any of our GPs if required. Please make a double appointment.
Asthma/COPD Clinic
Asthma/COPD Review appointments are available at the Surgery. Patients can access this service by making an appointment with our Practice Nursing Staff – To do this please telephone the Receptionists on 0131 225 5220. We also have a pharmacist prescriber able to do this on a Thursday Morning.
Child Health and Immunisation Clinic
Child Health and Immunisation Clinics are run by our health visitor on Friday afternoon.
For more information on the Child Immunisation Schedule visit the NHS Immunisation website.
Long-term Conditions Management Clinics
Our nurse team run weekly:
-
diabetes
-
respiratory
-
ischaemic heart disease
-
and hypertension clinics
- Management of long-term conditions will initially take place over the telephone. For many people this will be sufficient but a face-to-face appointment may be required. Any home monitoring you already do, eg. blood pressure, will be very useful. We will be in touch but if you have any concerns please arrange a phone consultation rather than waiting.
Coil and Implant Service
A Coil and Implant Service is available at the Surgery. This clinic runs once per month, usually mid-month on a Thursday afternoon. Patients can access this service by arranging a consultation with Dr Catherine Smith to discuss their options and a note of their contact details are taken at that time. Thereafter, the Practice arranges to contact the patients to book their appointment into the appropriate clinic.
