For couples experiencing difficulty in conceiving, we can help with initial tests. It is easier (but not essential) if both partners are registered with us.
Both men and women need to look after their sexual health and take time to understand the issues that surround contraception and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). For instance there are some STIs, like chlamydia, that you could be carrying without having any symptoms. This infection can affect fertility, so it’s important to be screened if you may be at risk. We can screen for, diagnose and treat the common STIs in both women and men.
Symptoms of each STI can vary from local symptoms affecting the genitals, to symptoms that affect various other parts of the body. The following is not a full list of all possible symptoms. However, these are the common symptoms to look out for:
But remember, in many cases of STI, no symptoms may develop. However, you can still pass on the infection to others even if you have no symptoms. Therefore, if you think that you may have a STI, it is best to see a doctor.
We offer pre-travel health checks; travel health advice service; plus vaccination & anti-malarial prophylaxis recommendat ions; for patients over 16years old only.
If you are planning foreign travel, you should book a consultation with the doctor or the practice nurse well in advance. Ideally, book your appointment at least four to six weeks before your planned trip.Your individual requirements will be assessed based on your destination, length of trip, previous vaccinations and medical history. You will need a medical consultation to ensure you are safe to travel and to receive vaccination.
Requirements can change, for any country, according to various outbreaks. Most of Europe, Australia and North America do not need particular vaccinations for travel, but if you are unsure it is best to discuss this with us. Vaccinations commonly recommended for travel to certain parts of Asia, Africa and Central or South America include Hepatitis A, Typhoid, Tetanus, Diphtheria and Polio. Hepatitis B vaccination is advised for long stay travellers (greater than 4 weeks) in certain areas, or people who may be exposed through occupational activity. Hepatitis B vaccination requires a course of three injections at separate intervals.
There are many conditions that can affect a person’s mental health. These include: Anxiety, Bereavement, Depression, Insomnia, Stress and Other Mood – related Conditions. Our team is trained to assist you, in a compassionate, confidential setting. We can offer individual tailored advice, medication or specialist referral.

If you notice a lump, change in a mole or abnormal bleeding you should make an appointment to have this checked by a Doctor. If you have persistent problems such as, a cough, hoarseness, change in bowel habit or unexplained weight loss, these should also prompt a review with a doctor. It is recommended that women check their breasts regularly, have a mammogram and cervical smear test done in accordance with Health Guidelines. Men should check their testicles periodically and discuss any prostatic symptoms with their Doctor. Wearing sun protection, examining your skin for changes, and stopping smoking are simple risk reduction measures.

Seasonal Flu Vaccination
Influenza – flu – is a highly infectious and potentially serious illness caused by influenza viruses. Each year the make-up of the seasonal flu vaccine is designed to protect against the influenza viruses that the World Health Organization decide are most likely to be circulating in the coming winter.
Flu vaccinations – Protection should be considered for persons at special risk. Use of the vaccine can minimise the use of antibiotics and time lost from work. We particularly recommend this for our patients with heart, lung and kidney disease, diabetes and some other chronic diseases, or those who are meeting large numbers of people during the course of their day. It is also recommended for older people and for residents of nursing or rest homes.
Please contact the reception staff for details of the dates of our flu vaccination clinics.
Regular immunisation (vaccination) is given to the following at-risk people, to protect them from seasonal flu:
