Minor surgery sessions are held by the GPs fortnightly. Your doctor will make the required arrangements for you. More complex procedures may require a referral to a specialist service.

We offer a comprehensive childhood immunisation programme.

Please contact the surgery for further details.

The surgery provides a full range of contraceptive services, including emergency contraception.

Counselling is available for short-term conditions including those related to stress, bereavement and relationship difficulties. Counselling is provided by a counselling service commission by the CCG.

Dr Jinmi fits coils at the surgery. You will need to make an initial appointment to discuss things with her and then a further double appointment for the actual fitting.

Cervical screening significantly reduces the risk of developing cervical cancer. It is offered by the NHS to all patients between the ages of 24.5 and 64 and involves having a cervical smear which can be taken by our practice nurses.

You can obtain the results via our online services, or by telephoning the surgery four to five weeks after your smear test.

Our phlebotomists will take blood samples for tests to be done. Children under sixteen have to have their blood taken by a doctor, or at the hospital clinic.

Blood samples can be taken on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday mornings, and Thursday afternoons. They are then taken by courier to the hospital laboratories for analysis.

Most results are visible online via our online services. Please complete our online form if you wish to register for online services. Otherwise, please telephone after 11:30, allowing one working week from the time the test was carried out.

The surgery runs an anti-coagulation clinic every Thursday morning for patients taking Warfarin, with the support of Luton & Dunstable Hospital.

Once patients have had their dosing stabilised by the hospital, they can attend the surgery, which many find more convenient. We can test the blood at the surgery, and then use a sophisticated computer programme to advise on dosing, based on the results obtained.

As soon as you know you are pregnant, please make an appointment to see a doctor, who will then arrange the relevant care with you.

The community midwives and doctors provide a shared care system for antenatal and postnatal care, both for mother and baby at the surgery and at home. Our community midwife is based at Luton & Dunstable Hospital, and can be contacted via the switchboard on 01582 49 11 66. The midwife also runs clinics at the surgery 08:30 – 16:00 every Monday.

Following your delivery, the midwife cares for you for ten days, after which our health visitors will take over your routine care.
