The clinics are designed to check apparently healthy people for a range of possible problems and are usually carried out by our health care assistant unless the patient requires cervical screening. Patients are offered blood pressure and urine checks, advice on maintaining a healthy lifestyle, for example, with regard to diet and exercise. Women are offered cervical smear examinations where appropriate. The well person checks are usually done by our Health Care Assistant unless patients require cervical screening.
