Ear Syringing

It is with regret that we will no longer be providing an ear irrigation service to remove ear wax.  This service is no longer recommended by NICE and is no longer funded. 

Advice on self help to remove ear wax can be found on the NHS Website and there a number of local private providers of ear wax removal by microsuction (this service isn't yet commissioned in Primary Care by the NHS in this area).

COVID - 

We will be participating in the Spring 2025 Covid Vaccination campaign. Patients eligible for the vaccaination this spring areas follows:

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)

From 1 September 2024, a new respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccination programme will be introduced. RSV is a viral pathogen known for causing respiratory infections, predominantly affecting the lungs and airways. It often causes a mild cough and cold but, in some people, can trigger pneumonia or bronchiolitis, characterised by inflammation in the airways.

The Practice will in due course contact patients to invite them to attend appointments.

Do you want to see the record of your appointments with the doctors and nurses, see the letters to/from hospital specialists and your test results without having to wait on the telephone?  Then why not register for the NHS App?

Our telephones are often tied up with extended calls when patients call asking for details contained in medical records.  Why not save your time by accessing this information at a time the suits you and which saves you (and others) from waiting on the phone?
