🎩 It’s Movember! Let’s Grow Awareness (and Some Mustaches)! 🥸

This November, we’re joining the Movember movement to raise awareness for men’s health — from mental well-being to prostate and testicular cancer prevention. 💪

Whether you’re growing a mustache, supporting someone who is, or just spreading the word, every conversation helps make a difference.

👨‍⚕️ Men — don’t forget:
✔ Schedule your regular health check-up
✔ Talk about how you’re feeling
✔ Support your mates and check in often
✔️ Check your chaps
✔️ Remember it's okay not to be okay
✔️ If you need to talk we are here for you
✔️ If you notice any changes or have concerns please get in touch!

Let’s change the face of men’s health — one mustache at a time!

Today, we bid a heartfelt farewell to our much-loved Dr. Maxwell.
Dr. Maxwell has been a highly respected and cherished member of our team, and his presence will be greatly missed. We wish him and his family every happiness and success as they embark on the next exciting chapter of their lives.

We are also delighted to announce that Dr. Shalini Agarwal will be joining our practice in December. Dr. Agarwal brings with her a wealth of experience, with a special interest in women’s health. We are very much looking forward to welcoming her to our team and know she will be a wonderful addition to our practice.

🎀🩷October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month 🎀🩷

Ladies (and gents too 👀), this is your friendly reminder to check your pair with care! 🫶

It only takes a few minutes, and it could make all the difference.

Think of it like giving yourself a little high-five in the mirror 👋 (but you know…at chest-level).

Early detection saves lives. Check your breasts, book that mammogram if it’s due, and encourage your friends to do the same.

Let’s keep the girls (and guys) safe! 🩷🎀.

If you notice any change in your breasts please book an appointment at the practice.

🔔 Vaccinations during pregnancy

If you are pregnant, you can help protect your baby from RSV, whooping cough, and flu, which can cause serious illness. Vaccines give you both the best protection against these diseases.

Speak to your midwife or GP practice.
