DIABETES CHECKS
This is a great service being offered free to all
diabetics registered with this practice. It allows
one free check up per year - rather like a warrant
of fitness. All eligible patients will receive an
information letter inviting them to make an appointment for
a half hour consultation with the nurse and a follow up
with the doctor. Take advantage of this very good offer to
get your diabetes assessed.
SMEARS & MAMMOGRAMS
Kathy is trained to take smears and is happy to
discuss this with you. Remember too, you need to keep your
mammograms up to date. Women between 45 & 70 yrs
qualify for the National free screening service. Contact us
for more information.
DIET/WEIGHT CONTROL CONSULTATION
Kathy offers a diet/weight consultation, and is able
to help you with problems and give you any diet information
you may need.
GREEN PRESCRIPTIONS
This practice encourages the Green Prescription
Scheme that was introduced by the Hillary Commission
several years ago, designed specifically to get people
moving. As little as 30 minutes exercise each day will
be of benefit in: lowering blood pressure, helping you cope
with asthma, improving your moods and feeling of wellbeing,
lowering blood glucose, reducing weight, & helping to
keep your bones strong. Even small bursts of activity can
be of benefit to your wellbeing! If you are interested in
this excellent programme, please contact us.
