As your GP surgery we play a significant role in managing your long-term condition (LTC). We believe in working with you and specialists in the community to provide holistic, personal, and high-quality care.

Long term conditions or chronic diseases are conditions for which there is currently no cure, and that are managed with drugs and other treatments.

All patients with a long-term condition should have an annual review (or ‘health MOT’). This will take place in your month of birth and you will be invited either by text message or letter.

We will review your results, look at your medical history and medications, and consider how together we could improve your health/management of your LTC. This may include health advice, medication changes or referrals to a community service.

 If you have more than one long term condition, all your conditions will be dealt with at the one appointment, with any follow-up appointments made if required.

Many of the conditions we manage include:

  • Coronary Heart Disease prevention
  • Diabetes
  • COPD - please complete CAT score and bring along to your appointment - click here
