Chlamydia Screening

Are you aged 15-24?  If yes, please contact the surgery and ask to make an appointment for your free chlamydia test.  It only takes a few minutes to do and results are sent to you confidentially.

Cervical Screening Programme

We recommend that all women aged between 25 and 64 regularly attend for cervical screening.  Cervical screening has reduced cancer rates by 50% since it first began.  You will be written to inviting you to attend either every 3 years or 5 years dependent on your age.  When you receive your letter, please telephone the surgery to make an appointment with the practice nurse.

Patient Information Notice

Cervical Screening Programme

Cervical screening reduces the risk of developing cervical cancer.  Cervical cancer rates have halved since the 1980’s largely due to most women regularly having cervical screening.

Cervical cancer can often be prevented.

All women aged 25 to 64 are offered cervical smear tests.  You will automatically receive an invitation.  You will receive invitations every three years between the ages of 25 and 49 and then every five years between 50 and 64.

When you receive your invitation, please telephone the surgery on 01449 678333 and ask to make an appointment with the practice nurse for a smear test.

 

Thank you.
