Special services and clinics

Baby Clinic

All new babies are invited for their six week check; this is usually done when your baby is eight weeks old. You should make an appointment to see both the doctor and the nurse. Your baby will have a full physical examination, a review of general progress and given immunisations; any parental concerns you may have will also be considered and discussed.

Child Immunisations

Child immunisation is offered to all children between 0-5 years old. It is very important for them to have all their routine childhood immunisations as this is the most effective way of keeping them protected against infectious diseases. Ideally, children should have their jabs at the right age to protect them as early as possible and minimize the risk of infection. Please book a regular appointment with the nurse.

Antenatal/Postnatal care

The doctors and practice nurses are available for consultation, by appointment as required.

Chronic Conditions

Test Results

The practice has a strict policy regarding confidentiality and data protection.

We will only release test results to the person to whom they relate unless that person has given prior permission for the release of this data or they are not capable of understanding the results.

Results Line

It is your responsibility to call the surgery for results; however, if the result is significantly abnormal, a doctor or nurse will contact you. Please call 020 3317 2244, between 12:00 and 12:45 (Monday – Friday), to obtain your results.

The results of most tests such as bloods and swabs are available within 7 days of having the procedure, but some do take longer, for example x-rays and ultra sound scans. 

Smear Results

The result of the cervical cytology screening test (smear) should be received by the woman at her home address, within 14 days weeks of having the test (but definitely within 4 weeks).  These results are sent directly from Camden Primary Care Trust (PCT) to the confirmed address given at the time of having the test.

Surgery Pod

The Surgery Pod, which is located in the Practice waiting area enables patients, without clinical supervision, to perform their own checks such as blood pressure, weight, pulse, alcohol usage etc, which are then instantaneously updated into your patient records. The Surgery Pod allows you to perform these simple checks at your own convenience and without making an appointment, and therefore allows you to spend more high-value time with the doctor when necessary.
