Clinics We Offer
We offer appointments with our nurses for management of diseases such as diabetes, asthma, hypertension (high blood pressure) as well as for health promotion such as well woman/well man checks, diet and weight advice and regular blood pressure checks. It is most important that you look after yourself!
Many major problems can be avoided by not smoking, drinking sensibly, controlling your weight and taking regular exercise.
If you feel you need help with any of these our nurses are here to assist you.
Child Immunisation
In association with the Health Authority we recommend all children receive the full range of immunisations against childhood illnesses as failure to immunise leaves children exposed to serious and possibly fatal disease. If you have any concerns on this issue please speak to one of our nurses.
Cervical Cytology Screening
We recommend that all women between 25 and 64 should have a cervical smear every four years. This is performed by all of our practice nurses and is quick and completely painless.
Family Planning
If you require advice or a confidential consultation on a family planning or contraceptive matter, we offer a full range of services. Book an appointment with any of our practice nurses who are fully trained in these matters.
Minor Surgery/Joint Injections
Minor surgical procedures may be carried out by the GPs at Stifford Clays Medical Practice.
Generally, minor surgery falls into two distinct groups: Cutting procedures – such as excision followed by suturing; and Injections – into joints or muscles.
