Family Planning

This service is available to any women in Waltham Forest or Essex. We offer a full and confidential range of contraceptive methods, including emergency contraception, advice and referral for termination of pregnancy.

Maternity Booking

The practice nurse will make the administrative arrangements for referral to the community midwife. The midwife will contact you directly to arrange hospital attendance. Ante-natal care is then shared between the GP, midwife and hospital.

Postnatal

Please telephone during surgery times to tell us when you are home from hospital. The postnatal hospital is usually done by one of the doctors at 6 weeks. Please make an appointment

Childhood Immunisations

Immunisations and Vaccinations are carried out by our practice nurses, who provide help and advice regarding these. Please make an appointment. More information regarding when your child should have their vaccinations can be found on the NHS website.

Vaccines are the most effective way to prevent infectious diseases. The NHS website explains how vaccines work, what they contain and the most common side effects.

Pneumonia Awareness

If you are 65 or over, or have certain health conditions like diabetes or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), you could be at increased risk of pneumococcal infections turning into something more serious, like pneumonia, blood poisoning, or meningitis.

If you are at risk, you may be eligible for pneumococcal vaccination on the NHS to help protect you against serious pneumococcal infections. Speak to your doctor or practice nurse.
