Clinics

Cervical Screening: Smear Tests

Cervical Screening appointments are available to women who have received their invitation letter.

We would strongly encourage women who are due for their screening to contact the surgery to arrange an appointment

Women aged between 24 and 64 should have a cervical screening every 3 to 5 years to help prevent cervical cancer. The screening is quick and painless and can be done here in the practice.

If you are aged over 24 and have never had a smear test, or if it has been more than 3 to 5 years since your last screening, you should arrange an appointment with our Practice Nurse. You should not have the test while you are having a period or in the 4 days before or after your period as this can affect the sample.
