Contraception

All the doctors give advice on contraception. All consultations are confidential, regardless of age. If you need emergency contraception you can phone to make an appointment. Dr Warrington holds a Family Planning clinic on Mondays between 5.00 and 6.00pm.

Immunisations

It is important to keep up to date with your immunisations to avoid serious illnesses. You can make an appointment for the treatment room or come to one of these clinics:

• Baby and Child Immunisations Thursday afternoons. We will invite your child to attend when they reach the age for their immunisation
• Flu jabs - we will invite you to attend for a flu immunisation if you are aged over 65 or have an illness that would be made worse if you caught flu 
• Travel: If you are going abroad, you can arrange an appointment with a Treatment Room nurse for advice on any immunisations you may require.

Minor Surgery

Some minor procedures are carried out at the surgery. The doctor will advise you. 

Minor Illness Clinics

Minor Illness Clinics are run every morning and patients will be seen and treated by an Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP). If a doctor’s opinion is still required, the ANP will arrange an appointment with the on-call doctor.

The following conditions can be treated in a Minor Illness Clinic:

Travel Vaccinations

If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to make an appointment with the practice nurse to discuss your travel arrangements.  This will include the countries and areas within countries that you are visiting, to determine what vaccinations are required. 

Information about countries and vaccinations required can be found on the links below:

Europe & Russia	North America
Central America	South America
Carribean	Africa
Middle East	Central Asia
East Asia	Australasia and Pacific

It is important to make the initial appointment as early as possible  - at least 6 weeks before you travel - as a second appointment will be required with the practice nurse to actually receive the vaccinations. These vaccines have to be ordered as they are not a stock vaccine. Your second appointment needs to be at least 2 weeks before you travelto allow the vaccines to work.

To help us offer the appropriate advice, please fill out the online form before coming to see the nurse.

District Nurses & Community Matron

If you are unable to attend the surgery for nursing care, the doctor may request the District Nurse or Community Matron to visit you at home.

Pregnancy Care

When you are pregnant you will receive regular care from your usual doctor and midwife before and after your baby is born.

Drugs and Alcohol Services

If you feel you have any problems about drink or drugs your doctor may be able to refer you on to specialist services. The practice follows the South Bristol Methadone protocol where all patients receiving methadone on prescription must see a Drugs Worker. 

Drugs Workers from Bristol Drugs Project hold regular clinic sessions at the surgery to see our patients who need their support.
