Smear Tests

Smear tests

Wedneday and Thursday afternoons

Smear test appointments can be booked directly by the receptionist and there is no need for a telephone appointment first. Please remember to cancel and rebook your appointment if you develop symptoms of possible Covid-19 and to wear a facemask as you come in to the practice

We recommend ALL women from the age of 25 have a cervical smear every 5 years, as problems detected this way can usually be cured. Appointments can be made with your Doctor during normal Surgery, provided you request a ‘Smear’ appointment. Our Nurses are also fully trained to perform smears and can do so during any Nurse Surgery. We request you make an appointment for this to be done.

HPV Immunisation

We vaccinate from the age of 14 against cervical cancer as per the National Programme. Please ask at the Reception or one of our Practice Nurses for more information.
