St Peters Street Medical Practice - The clinics and other services offered by our doctors surgery

Noticeboard

We are following advice from NHS England that all patients must be triaged first before they can be seen. We are aware this has caused an increase in our phone traffic, we ask patients to be patient with us during this very busy time, or use the E-consult or Patient Access Service if they have access to the internet.
Please think before you shout or abuse our staff, we are trying our best and do not tolerate abuse of any kind.

COVID Vaccine - We are contacting patients for their vaccines in line with Government guidance. Please be patient with the staff if they are unable to book you in, we have been assured there will be enough vaccines to off to all patients.

Bank Holiday Closures - please note we will be closed on Friday 2nd April and re-open Tuesday the 6th April at 08.00am. Patients can call the Practice number to be diverted to the Ihub service, or call 11 if you need urgent medical advice. If you need help in an emergency, please call 999.

Travel Vaccinations

If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to make an appointment with the practice nurse to discuss your travel arrangements. This will include which countries and areas within countries that you are visiting to determine what vaccinations are required.

There is further information about countries and vaccinations required on the links below

Europe & Russia	North America
Central America	South America
Caribbean	Africa
Middle East	Central Asia
East Asia	Australasia and Pacific

It is important to make this initial appointment as early as possible - at least 6 weeks before you travel - as more than one appointment may be required with the practice nurse depending on vaccination schedule required.

Some travel vaccines are ordered on a private prescription and these incur a charge over and above the normal prescription charge. This is because not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS.

Travelling in Europe

If you are travelling to Europe the EU has published useful information for travellers on the European website.

Non-NHS Services

Some services provided are not covered under our contract with the NHS and therefore attract charges. Examples include the following:

Medicals for pre-employment, sports and driving requirements (HGV, Taxi, etc.)
Insurance claim forms
Prescriptions for taking medication abroad
Private sick notes
Vaccination certificates
Fitness to travel

The fees charged are based on the British Medical Association (BMA) suggested scales and our reception staff will be happy to advise you about them along with appointment availability.

*Please note that if you are taking part in a sporting/leisure activity such as a marathon, cycling, diving, sky diving etc, the organisation running the even may want your Doctor to complete a medical fitness report.
