Solent View Medical Practice

Solent View Medical Practice Patient-focused GP Practice providing exceptional healthcare and diverse services. www.solentviewmedicalpractice.co.uk

The present partnership came into existence in July 1993 when a larger group practice based at Stubbington and Lee-on-the-Solent divided into two separate practices. Originally the practice area covered the three villages of Stubbington, Hill Head and Lee-on-the-Solent, but as the population of Lee has grown significantly in recent years the practice area has now been changed to include Lee residents only. Former patients living in Hill Head and Stubbington have remained with the practice but no further new patients will be taken on from these areas for the foreseeable future. The practice population continues to steadily increase as a result of local building developments. Lee-on-Solent Health centre was purpose built in 1983 and extended in 2003 to accommodate the partners in our neighbouring practice.

🎃🔪 Thinking of carving up a spooky pumpkin this Halloween? Before you do, here’s how to stay safe - and how to keep your sugar intake in check 👻🍬

How to carve a pumpkin safely:
🛠️ Use a clean, dry, well-lit area with a sturdy surface.
🧼 Wash and thoroughly dry your hands and tools to avoid slips.
🛡️ Use a proper pumpkin carving kit (small serrated saws) instead of large kitchen knives.
🔄 Always cut away from your body and use small, controlled motions.
👨‍👩‍👧 Leave the carving to adults; kids can draw the design or scoop out pulp.
⚠️ If you get cut and heavy bleeding continues for more than 15 minutes, seek medical care.

Too many sweets can impact your health in more ways than one.
Read how sugar affects your body and tips for moderating consumption:

Balance is everything - carve safely, enjoy treats mindfully, and take care.

🎗️ ADHD Awareness Month - October is here! Whether you're newly considering ADHD or already navigating life with it - you’re not alone. ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition that can manifest as inattention, impulsivity, hyperactivity, or all three - presenting differently across individuals and across life stages

Seeking clarity? Begin with ADHD UK’s About ADHD page, offering videos from specialists and a self-screener for adults

ADHD UK also hosts peer support groups, expert-led sessions, and an online marketplace of coaches and tools to help with day-to-day challenges

Why it matters:

• Diagnoses are rising - not because ADHD is increasing, but because awareness is growing and stigma is lifting
• But many still wait long months - even years - for NHS assessments - access remains unequal
• Misinformation online can confuse rather than clarify. Trusted sources like ADHD UK are key

🎀 October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month - a time to learn, support, and advocate for everyone affected 💖

Breast cancer doesn’t just affect women. Men can get it too. It can also impact transgender people, who may face extra barriers to awareness, diagnosis, and care.

Here’s what to keep in mind:
🩺 Know the signs in everyone - lumps, changes in shape, ni**le changes, skin dimpling
🔍 Men, don’t ignore changes in your chest or ni**le - although less common, breast cancer can still occur in men
🏳️‍⚧️ Trans and nonbinary people: your risks and body may change with hormone therapy or surgeries - always feel empowered to ask for care and checkups

🦴🌍 World Osteoporosis Day - 20 October is your moment to take action for stronger, healthier bones! This silent disease often shows no symptoms until we suffer a fracture. But with awareness, prevention, and early diagnosis, we can change that.

What is osteoporosis? It’s a bone condition where bone density drops and microarchitecture weakens - making bones fragile and more prone to breaks, especially in the hip, wrist, and spine.

Risk factors include aging, menopause (due to dropping estrogen), smoking, alcohol, poor nutrition, certain medications, and underlying health conditions.

Preventive steps:
• Eat a bone‑friendly diet rich in calcium, vitamin D, protein 🍎
• Do weight‑bearing and resistance exercises 🏋️‍♀️
• Avoid smoking and excess alcohol 🚭🍷
• Get your bone density checked if you're at risk

Learn more and reach support:
👉 https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/osteoporosis/
👉 https://theros.org.uk

Together, let’s break the silence around osteoporosis and stand strong for bone health!
