Cervical Cancer Screening
Our female patients will receive a letter from the Health Authority when they are due for a routine smear and asked to make an appointment with the practice nurse. The screening is a relatively painless and simple, quick procedure carried out every three to five years, depending on age, or more frequently if clinically indicated. The results usually take between 4 to 6 weeks to be processed from the Laboratory.
Patients whose results are normal will receive a letter from the Health Authority and results which are abnormal will be dealt with by the Nurse or the doctor in the most appropriate way.
Some Patients are advised and reminded to have their smear if it is overdue. The Surgery sends Reminder letters to these patients, we would appreciate patients to respond appropriately and attend for screening.
