Clinics we offer

Our Nurses and Health Care Assistants (HCAs) carry out management of our patients long term conditions. Most of these conditions require annual follow up and so our HCAs will write to you on a yearly basis to invite you in for a check up. Some conditions (Diabetes for example) may require more regular follow up and this will also be arranged by the surgery.

At the Junction and Alkrington Surgeries we aim to provide whole person medical care. As part of our commitment to this we have provided an in-house mental health service for many years as we believe it is clear that mental health plays a very important part in overall health.

Patients can be referred to our in-house Mental Health Service by our GPs. As part of this service we offer counselling, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR).

The NHS Health Check is a free check-up of your overall health. It can tell you whether you're at higher risk of getting certain health problems, such as:

• heart disease
• diabetes
• kidney disease
• stroke

If you're over 65, you will also be told the signs and symptoms of dementia to look out for.

If you're aged 40-74 and you haven't had a stroke, or you don't already have heart disease, diabetes or kidney disease, you should have an NHS Health Check every five years. 

Any follow-up tests or appointments are also free of charge.

Appointments are 20 minutes in length. If you would like to book an appointment, please call the surgery or ask at the desk.
