Important: Measles Alert

Following a recent outbreak of measles in London, we strongly advise all parents and carers to ensure that children are fully immunised with the MMR vaccine.

Measles is a highly infectious illness and can be serious, particularly for babies, pregnant women and people with weakened immune systems. Complications can include ear infections, pneumonia, seizures and, in rare cases, brain inflammation (encephalitis).

Please check your child’s Red Book to confirm they have received both doses of the MMR vaccine. If you are unsure about your child’s vaccination status, please contact the practice and we will be happy to check your records.

If you believe you or your child may have symptoms of measles please do NOT attend the practice in person.
Instead, please telephone the surgery or submit an online consultation so we can advise you safely.

Examinations and Treatment

Home / Services / For All Patients / Examinations and Treatment

At your appointment with us, we might need to conduct a physical examination to fully assess your medical condition.

We offer chaperones for our appointments – you can read more about requesting a chaperone, below. Once our clinician has taken your medical history and completed your examination, they will explain your diagnosis and next steps – including any treatment.

Treatment may be medication or other alternative routes such as physical therapy. If it is decided that you need to be referred to another health or social care provider, the GP practice will do this.

Chaperones

Our Practice provides a safe environment where patients and staff can be confident that best practice is being followed. All patients can request to have a chaperone present for any appointment or examination. This chaperone can be a trained member of staff, a family member or friend.

There may also be times where your clinician might require a chaperone to be present for your appointment. When possible, please let us know that you would like a chaperone before your appointment. This helps to avoid your appointment being delayed or rescheduled.

When this is not possible we will do our best to provide a chaperone at the time of request.
