Clinics and Services

C Card Service

Our practice is a C Card point, which can be used by anyone aged over sixteen - you do not need to be registered at our practice.

Simply show your C-Card Direct at reception. If you do not have a card we can supply one for you.

This service is available Monday to Friday, 9:30am to 4:30pm.

Visit the C Card website for information on other free contraception services available

Cervical Smears

The Cervical Screening test (smear test) is designed to check your cervix (neck of the womb) for the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). HPV causes 99% of all cervical cancers. Cervical screening can stop cervical cancer before it starts.

If you have had HPV vaccinations, this will prevent around 75% of cervical cancer cases, but screening is still needed to pick up any other cervical cell changes.

You will receive a letter from the Health Board to let you know when your next smear appointment is due. When you receive your letter, please telephone the practice to book an appointment with one of our Practice Nurses.

If you are eligible for cervical screening (aged 25 to 64 years old and not had an appointment for over five years) but have not received a letter, then telephone us anyway. 

It may take up to 10 weeks for you to get your results by letter. The results will also be sent to the person who took your test and your GP.

If you would like more information on cervical screening then please visit the NHS Lothian Cervical Screening Website.

Mental Health


Please note that our mental health nurse cannot prescribe medication or issue a fitnote.

We have our own primary care mental health nurse that works within the practice.

If you are aged between 18 to 65 years old and need help with your mental health or wellbeing, you can call the practice on 0131 322 9333 to book an appointment.

There is also a wide range of local services that can help you which can be found on our mental health page.

Non NHS Private Work

See our Non NHS Private Work page for details about the private services we offer.

Physiotherapy

Every GP practice in Midlothian has an Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner who works within the practice who you can speak to if you have a muscle, bone or joint problem.

They are all highly experienced and can assess and diagnose any musculoskeletal conditions, provide you with an explanation of your condition, appropriate exercises and discuss management options. This may include referral to your local Physiotherapy department for ongoing physiotherapy, pain management advice, X-ray or referral for a specialist opinion.

See our appointments page for details

Low Back Pain

If you have pain in your lower back (including sciatica) you can now self-refer directly to a new digital support service which offers same-day appointments 24/7. The service is delivered by NHS Lothian’s clinical partner, Flok Health.
