Specialist Services

Asthma/COPD Management

Patients, both adults and children, are seen by the practice nurse for appropriate education, advice and supervision of treatment. The clinic also provides individual management plans, where appropriate, and follow-up care. A double appointment can be made with reception.

Minor Surgery - As Required

Dr Gracey runs these clinics with assistance from the practice nurse. Many minor surgical procedures such as the removal of cysts and skin lesions can be carried out quickly and comfortably under local anaesthesia at this clinic. Appointments are by referral from your doctor.

Skin Clinic

A number of skin conditions can be treated at this clinic on referral from your doctor.

Cervical Smear Clinic

In Northern Ireland cervical screening (often called a smear test) is offered to all women aged 25 to 64. This is the age group where screening has been shown to be of most benefit. These appointments are with the Practice Nurse.

It is the patients responsibility to contact the surgery after 2.00pm any day except a Wednesday to get the results of your smear appointment.

For more information please see www.cancerscreening.hscni.net

Please watch this short video for information about cervical smears.

Near-Patient Testing

The treatment of several diseases, particularly in the field of rheumatology, is increasingly reliant on drugs that, while clinically effective, need regular blood monitoring. These blood tests will be carried out by the practice nurses or Health Care Assistant upon referral from your doctor.

Diabetic Clinic

Our diabetic patients are seen by Practice Nurse Pauline Orr, who has a diploma in Diabetes Management in Primary Care. Patients are referred to this clinic to obtain appropriate education and advice, to help maximise their effective control and reduce the risks of any complication with diabetes.

Child Health Clinic - Thursday 11.00am to 12.00pm

Almost 10% of our patients are under five years old. We have developed this clinic to assess children as they grow, to protect and immunise them against disease and to offer parents encouragement and advice.

Anti-Coagulation Monitoring

This monitoring clinic is for the care of patients taking Warfarin and is run by the practice nurse.

Appointments are made to suit the patient in treatment room.

Adult Vaccinations

Tetanus and Polio - all adults should ensure they are adequately immunised against tetanus and polio.

Flu vaccinations - available each autumn for those patients who are over 65 or at risk due to certain medical conditions such as asthma, diabetes, kidney disease or heart trouble or who are pregnant.

For advice on either of these services please contact reception to make an appointment with the practice nurse.

Family Planning

All women of childbearing potential should be taking folic acid due to the chance of unplanned pregnancy. If you are thinking about trying to conceive, we suggest taking folic acid for at least 3 months before having unprotected intercourse. If you discover you are pregnant, but are not taking folic acid, we recommend that you start 400mcg daily straight away and continue until your pregnancy is confirmed to be 12 weeks gestation or you are advised to stop by your ante-natal team. This dose of folic acid is available over the counter.

Maternity Care

If a you as a patient discover you are pregnant, you can self refer to the Midwifery Led clinics using the links below. This clinic is called the MOAN clinic. You may make a booking appointment with the GP but they too will be directing you to self refer to the MOAN clinic. Full antenatal and postnatal care is now provided by the MOAN Clinic (midwifery led) and Ormeau Park Surgery will not be offering shared care.

You should make an appointment with the nurse at the surgery for your flu vaccination at any time during your pregnancy and for your whooping cough vaccinations after 16 weeks.

Some patients have a higher chance of their pregnancy being affected by a neural tube defect (eg Spina Bifida) and as such need a higher daily dose of 5mg folic acid, which is available on prescription. You need this higher dose if there is a family history of neural tube defect, you have diabetes, you take anti-epilepsy medication, you take anti-retrovirals for HIV, you have coeliac disease, or if your BMI is >35. If you think this may apply to you please contact the surgery and a prescription can be arranged. If you are on any regular medications, especially thyroid tablets or anti-depressants please contact the surgery to review doses with your GP

Midwife led antenatal care is considered best practice by the RCGP.
