Bowel Cancer

If you’ve had blood in your poo or looser poo for 3 weeks, your doctor wants to know.

Chances are it’s nothing to worry about, but these symptoms could be signs of bowel cancer, so tell your doctor. Finding bowel cancer early makes it more treatable and could save your life.

Are you aged 65 or over?  Have you ever had a pneumonia vaccination?  If not, you are entitled to a free vaccination.  Please telephone your registered GP's PA to book an appointment.

If you need to phone us

Monday mornings are extremely busy for GP surgerys so if you need to phone us for something that is not urgent, please try at another time.  Hopefully this will mean that patients with urgent problems find it easier to contact us on Monday mornings.
