Just a reminder for patients who are ordering prescriptions over the Christmas period. Tomorrow will be the last day to put in a prescription request where we can guarantee this can be done before Christmas day. Our process for prescription requests is 5 working days, and the surgery will be closed on the 25th of December and will not re-open until the 29th of December.

Crown Heights Medical Centre is reintroducing facemask wearing within the practice.

From 15-December-2025, all patients and visitors who are suffering from respiratory or flu-like symptoms and are able to wear a facemask must do so while inside the medical centre. This measure is in place to protect patients, staff, and the wider community.

Facemasks must be worn at all times during your visit unless a medical exemption applies. If you are unable to wear a mask, please inform a member of staff on arrival.

Thank you for your cooperation.

We are now in the month of November which means it is now Movember!

The Movember movement focuses on raising awareness for mental and physical health problems within the male population.

A growing number of men are facing life with a prostate cancer diagnosis. Globally, testicular cancer is the most common cancer among young men. And across the world, one man dies by su***de every minute of every day, with males accounting for 69% of all su***des.

Your participation means the charity is able to help men dealing with these health issues by providing them with the support and help they need. You can do this by either signing up to the movement, take part in a charity run, give a donation, raise a fundraiser, or grow your moustache this November as a conversation starter to raise awareness to help support.
For more details on how to join or show your support, please see the link below.

If you are aged 40-74 and have not already been diagnosed with an underlying health condition, you are eligible for a free 20-30 minute NHS health check.

The appointment consists of a health assessment to check if you are at risk of conditions of diabetes, heart disease, stroke, kidney disease and dementia.

The NHS Health Check aims to find undiagnosed disease early and give patients space and time to talk about risk factors like inactivity, smoking and any concerns about issues like dementia.

If you are between the ages of 40-74 and have not had your NHS health check, please contact the surgery to get this arranged.
