Special
Services Available
Registration Medicals
Patients new to the practice are
asked to complete a questionnaire prior to their full records arriving. We encourage
all new patients to have a health check with our practice nurse.
Diabetic
Clinic
This is held on the first three Fridays
in the month. We operate a shared care scheme with the local hospitals and are
able to offer all our diabetic patients at least one appointment per year. We
are proud to have been the first practice in the Warrington area to achieve this!
Asthma Clinic
Please make an appointment with Dr
Allen and Sister Liz Wellbelove for the asthma clinic, which is held every Friday
afternoon.
Antenatal
Care
Every Wednesday from 1.30 - 3.00pm
with a midwife.
Contraception
All doctors are happy to provide
contraception services; special arrangements are made for fitting the cap. Because
of personal religious beliefs Dr Allen feels unable to refer patients for termination.
Cervical
Smears
We believe that it is important for
women to attend for cervical smear testing. This can be done by either of our
practice nurses. Please ask at reception for an appointment as clinic times may
change from time to time. Routine checks on blood pressure, urine and blood will
be carried out if these seem appropriate.
Well Person
Clinic
This health check clinic is run twice
weekly by the practice nurse. Please make an appointment if you have not been
seen at the surgery during the last three years.
Minor Surgery
Dr Allen and Dr Finigan will provide
surgical treatment for appropriate complaints, after initial consultation.

are free, there are a few items for which payment must be made in accordance with
the British Medical Association recommended rates. These include:
Private Sick Notes Private Medical Insurance Certificates Employment
