Family planning advice is also available during any normal doctor & nurse sessions.

For Coils (IUD implants) and implants please phone 0345 300 2350 for the local Family Planning/Sexual Health Clinics that provide these services. This will be at St Johns Medical Centre

Pregnant?

 

If you suspect you are pregnant, do a home pregnancy test first. Once the pregnancy is confirmed, you will need to book an appointment to see midwife on 07787 841986. The first scan is offered at 10-12 weeks, so it is highly recommended that you are seen before you are 10 weeks pregnant.
