Counselling Services

There are several organisations in the High Wycombe area that offer general and specialist counselling services. Many of these organisations charge a fee, however you may benefit from shorter waiting times to see a counsellor. You can refer yourself to Healthy Minds if you feel you would like some support.

Dietician

Our in house Dietician is available to see patients by appointment only, once a month.

Influenza Vaccinations

Each year we offer the flu vaccine to the following groups of patients:

All those aged 65 and over.
Patients with certain long term chronic illnesses, such as asthma or diabetes.

Minor Illness Appointments

The purpose of the Minor Illness Service is to offer a same day appointment for many common and treatable conditions.

The specialist nurse has undergone extensive training in the diagnosis and treatment of such conditions. The specialist nurse can discuss your case with the doctor if required. We also have a highly qualified Advanced Nurse Clinician who sees our patients for Minor Illnesses who is able to prescribe.

Please remember that the receptionist may suggest an appointment with the specialist nurse to reduce your waiting time before being seen.

Did you know that our Nurses can see you for following minor illnesses?

Travel Vaccinations

If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to make an appointment with the practice nurse to discuss your travel arrangements at least 8 weeks before you travel. This will include which countries and areas within countries that you are visiting to determine what vaccinations are required.

There is further information about countries and vaccinations required on the links below

Europe & Russia	North America
Central America	South America
Caribbean	Africa
Middle East	Central Asia
East Asia	Australasia and Pacific

It is important to make this initial appointment as early as possible - at least 8 weeks before you travel - as a second appointment will be required with the practice nurse to actually receive the vaccinations. These vaccines have to be ordered as they are not a stock vaccine. Your second appointment needs to be at least 2 weeks before you travel to allow the vaccines to work.

Some travel vaccines are ordered on a private prescription and these incur a charge over and above the normal prescription charge. This is because not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS.

Forms are available at reception, once completed thisll be given to the Practice Nurse who will determine if any vaccines are needed and will contact you for an appointment in time for when you travel.

Travelling in Europe

If you are travelling to Europe the EU has published useful information for travellers on the European website.

Non-NHS Services

Some services provided are not covered under our contract with the NHS and therefore attract charges. Examples include the following:

Medicals for pre-employment, sports and driving requirements (HGV, PSV etc.)
Insurance claim forms
Prescriptions for taking medication abroad
Private sick notes
Vaccination certificates

The Non-NHS Charges are based on the British Medical Association (BMA) suggested scales and our reception staff will be happy to advise you about them along with appointment availability.

Baby and Child Vaccinations

Child development checks are arranged by the health visitors and are recommended at 10 months and 21 – 24 months of age.

Childhood Immunisations

The practice recommends the full child immunisation schedule.

One of the most important things that a parent can do for their child is to make sure that they have all their routine childhood vaccinations. It’s the most effective way of keeping them protected against infectious diseases.

Ideally, children should have their jabs at the right age to protect them as early as possible and minimise the risk of infection.

Find out which jabs your child needs, when they need them, and what the benefits of each jab are.

The childhood immunisation clinic, run by our nurse, is held on:

Tuesdays

09:15 - 15:30

If this is inconvenient, immunisations can be fitted in with the nurse at other times. Please bring your childs personal Child Health Record Book (The Red Book) to every appointment.
