New Baby checks

Our nurse provides childhood immunisation service. Please book an appointment with our nurse, we do not run a specific clinic and will try to accommodate you with a suitable time.

A mother and baby check is usually undertaken at 6-8 weeks of age. Please ask reception to book you in for this slot.
