6–8 week postnatal check

This is a national screening recommended to all new born babies between 6 to 8 weeks. This assessment allows you to discuss concerns about your baby’s growth and development. It is usually combined with the baby’s first set of immunisations which are administered at the same time.

Cervical Smears

We have a dedicated female Specialist Nurse.

Cervical screening is not a test for cancer. It is a method of preventing cancer by detecting and treating early abnormalities which, if left untreated, could lead to cancer in a woman’s cervix (the neck of the womb). All women between the ages of 25 and 64 are eligible for a free cervical screening test every three to five years.
