Family Planning

Cervical Smears

Minor Surgery
Once seen by a GP you will be added to our minor operations list and will be notified as soon as an appointment becomes available. This will be with a doctor and a nurse.
Non-NHS Services
The doctors are able to complete private medical insurance claim forms and private certificates and carry out medical examinations for insurance, driving, employment and sport. These do not form part of their NHS work and therefore a fee is payable. Please ask at reception for details.
Counselling
We have a resident counsellor who is available two days a week. Referral is via a doctor only.
Travel Immunisations/Vaccinations
Please make an appointment at least six to eight weeks in advance of your holiday to ensure adequate cover. A charge will be made for certain immunisations and vaccinations which are not covered by the NHS.
Flu Vaccination
An influenza vaccination is particularly recommended for all at risk patients, those over 65 and residents of nursing and rest homes. Please contact the reception staff in October for details of the vaccination dates and to make an appointment.
Yellow Fever Vaccination
The Pines Surgery is an authorised Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre.
Special Services
All the doctors provide maternity medical services, contraceptive services and minor surgery services. We have a trained diabetic nurse and a trained asthma nurse in the practice. We also undertake our own child surveillance.
