Appointments Tel. 028 2766 0300 Option 2
All new patients have some basic health checks on registration.
Existing patients can attend their Doctor for a general health check. Those who often 'fall through the net' but would benefit from these checks are middle aged men, all smokers and those with a family history of heart disease. We also offer DIABETIC, ASHTMA and COPD clinics and offer annual check ups for patients with EPILEPSY, HEART DISEASE, STROKES and CHRONIC MENTAL ILLESS.
A new video is now available on the Northern Ireland Cancer Screening Programme website produced by the Public Health Agency to aid those people eligible to have the Bowel Screening Test. It covers how to take the test, processing the samples at the laboratory, receiving your results and being called back to colonoscopy. Please follow the link
