You’ll be invited for an NHS Health Check every five years if you are between 40 and 74 years old, as long as you don’t have an existing vascular condition.

We offer numerous methods of LARC at Strayside Health. ‘LARC’ stands for long-acting reversible contraception. This is contraception that doesn’t depend on you remembering to take or use it to be effective and is highly effective at preventing pregnancy. The main LARC methods are the IUS and IUD (otherwise known as ‘hormone coils’ and ‘copper coils’) and the Implant. We have a weekly ‘LARC’ Clinic, run by Dr Huskins, where all of these methods of LARC are available.

Our diabetic patients are looked after by our specially trained nurses.
