Services We Provide

We run a range of clinics.  For an appointment or further details, please call our main surgery on 01536 204 154

Midwife Clinic

If you become pregnant, you will be given a 'booking appointment' during which the midwife will ask you a few questions and carry out some general health checks.  You will be seen regularly throughout your pregnancy either at the practice or at the local hospital, or both. 

Child Health Immunisations

These are run by our nurses at Lakeside and appointments are sent out automatically from the Health Authority.

Health Monitoring Clinics

Annual checks are performed by our doctors and nursing team. The clinics offer advice and general health checkups to patients with chronic illnesses. These include diabetes, asthma, hypertension, thyroid, heart disease and other chronic disease clinics. 

Minor Surgery

We do offer minor surgery services.  Please discuss this with your doctor who will then arrange for you to be given an appointment. 

Non-NHS Examinations

The doctors are happy to carry out medicals, eg insurance and driving licence, by appointment.   Do ask at reception for the charges for these services.  Patient paternity testing and employment medicals are also undertaken. These must be made at reception with the necessary paperwork.

Travel Immunisations/Vaccinations/Travel Health Advice

You will be offered a call from the nurse to discuss your vaccination requirements before an appointment is booked.

Lakeside Surgery is an authorised Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre.  A charge will be made for certain immunisations and vaccinations which are not covered by the NHS.  A list of these charges is held at reception.
