Feeling bloated lately? Tired for no reason? Noticing subtle changes?

Ovarian cancer symptoms are often vague - and easy to dismiss. But early detection saves lives.

If you have reached menopausal and your GP is registered in Gateshead or you or living in Gateshead, you can self-refer for a pelvic ultrasound scan today.

Please complete this short form and a member of the team from the Queen Elizabeth will be in touch.

🚭 Thinking about quitting smoking?

Did you know every cigarette smoked takes around 20 minutes off your life?

Even more importantly, smoking can shorten lives, and up to 2 in every 3 people who smoke may die earlier than they otherwise would. The more someone smokes and the longer they wait to quit, the higher the risks. But good news, it’s never too late to make a change and protect your health.

💷 The cost adds up too. If you smoke 10 ci******es a day, you could be spending nearly £45 a week, which is over £2000 a year.

You can get support at stop smoking clinics which can be found available at most local pharmacies. Friendly advice, proven treatments, and support are there to help you succeed.

✨Quit today and give yourself more tomorrows.✨

We wish you and your loved ones a Christmas filled with peace, joy, good health, and happiness.

Happy Christmas and warm wishes from all of us at the practice.

Flu Vaccinations Available 💉

We still have a limited number of flu vaccinations available at the surgery for patients under and over 65 years old.

If you haven’t yet been vaccinated, or would like to check your eligibility, please contact the surgery.

Flu cases are on the rise and our remaining stock is limited, so please don’t delay.

Dear Valued Patients,

With flu cases currently on the rise in our community, we kindly encourage patients and visitors to consider wearing a face mask while in the practice. This small step can help reduce the spread of illness and protect those who may be more vulnerable.

We have had several members of staff off this week poorly and this has had an obvious impact on the services we can provide.

Thank you for your understanding, cooperation, and continued support in helping us keep everyone safe and well. 💙

Today, we bid a heartfelt farewell to our much-loved Dr. Maxwell.
Dr. Maxwell has been a highly respected and cherished member of our team, and his presence will be greatly missed. We wish him and his family every happiness and success as they embark on the next exciting chapter of their lives.

We are also delighted to announce that Dr. Shalini Agarwal will be joining our practice in December. Dr. Agarwal brings with her a wealth of experience, with a special interest in women’s health. We are very much looking forward to welcoming her to our team and know she will be a wonderful addition to our practice.
