Chronic Disease Monitoring

The surgery runs a chronic disease monitoring programme for the following diseases:

• Diabetes
• Asthma
• COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)
• Heart Disease

Patients are invited by letter from the surgery to come to an appointment with one of our Practice Nurses. We send out the letters a few weeks prior to when your review is due. You then telephone the surgery on 01570 570 271 and book an appointment in the appropriate clinic with the Practice Nurse for your review. (Diabetic reviews may include appointment date/time).

The letter will also tell you if you need to have a blood test in advance of coming for that appointment, and whether you need to bring a urine sample with you.
