All women aged between 20 and 60 years who have ever had sex should have regular cervical smear tests. In Scotland, women in this age group are routinely invited to have a smear test every 3 years. You should contact your doctor if it is more than 3 years since you last had a smear and you have not recently been invited to have a test.

You will be contacted via the post and asked to make an appointment at the practice. Most of our smears are carried out by our specially trained nurses.

The practice nurses offer chronic disease management clinics for patients diagnosed with the following:

• Asthma
• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
• Diabetes
• Heart Disease
• Hypertension
• Chronic Kidney Disease
• Stroke

You will be asked to attend the Community Care and Treatment Service based in Beechgrove House for the necessary blood tests 

All our doctors would be happy to discuss your contraceptive requirement during normal consultations. We are able to provide advice on all forms of contraception.

Certain types of contraception such as the coil are usually given by the Family Planning Clinic within a pre-booked appointment. The Clinic  is conveniently situated within Drumhar Health Centre.  

Dr Rosario currently runs an implant clinic - please ask Reception re appointment
