Long Term Condition Clinics

Regular monitoring and management are offered to patients who suffer from coronary heart disease, asthma, COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), hypertension, CKD and diabetes. You will be asked to attend an annual review appointment, usually around your birthday, but our practice nurses will often see patients with these conditions on a more frequent basis to manage them under protocols laid down by the medical team. You can find more information about our Long Term Condition reviews here.
