How do you book an appointment with a GP or Nurse?
There are two options available for you to book an appointment, this doesn't have to be just with a GP or Nurse either! You can book any appointment or make any query via our AskMyGp Service or Phone Lines 🌟
On this Remembrance Sunday, we pause to honour the courage, sacrifice, and service of all who gave their lives in conflict — and those who continue to serve today.
We will remember them.
Lung Cancer is a malignant disease where lung cells grow out of control and cause tumours.
Common symptoms include a cough that does not go away, coughing up blood, persistent chest pain, unexplained weight loss and fatigue.
If caught early, treatment options are available.
Still not got round to getting your child vaccinated against flu?
We are running an additional two walk-in clinics this month, no appointment needed! We hope that this will open up more opportunities for you to be able to attend.
Remember, Remember… 🔥🎇
Bonfire Night is a tradition, but also one that poses easily avoidable risks. Remember to keep your distance from open flames and fireworks, only buy from licenced sellers, keep sparklers at arm’s length and ensure children are sufficiently supervised.
Oral cancer can affect anyone, but knowing some of the signs can help you to take action sooner.
The most common way mouth cancer starts is as a painless red or white patch, or ulcer in the mouth that does not heal within three weeks.
If you have any concerns, please contact us.
Has your child been invited for their nasal flu vaccination?
The vaccination is the most effective way to protect your child against flu and serious complications such as bronchitis and pneumonia. The nasal spray is also painless, no injection needed!
Make your appointment today!
Yes, it’s that time of year again! 🥸
Even if you can’t grow a good 'tache, you can take the time to consider your health.

This year, we are supporting the One Voice Christmas Joy Project and CARE Toys for Joy 2026 by collecting donations to make a difference to children who may otherwise have little to celebrate.
If you would like to join us, please leave any donations with staff at the front desk.
The countdown to Christmas is looming; no wonder we’re stressed!
But fear not, for International Stress Awareness Week we have a few little ideas you can try to help manage your stress levels before they become too much to bear.
1. Get regular exercise. The weather can be grim this time of year, but a bit of light exercise daily can help to keep things in check
2. Make time to relax. We’re not designed to be on the go every second. If you need some downtime between life commitments, do not feel guilty.
Happy Halloween from all of us here at the Roxton Practice! 👻🍬🐈⬛
Remember to stay safe and aware and look out for your friends as you enjoy the weekend’s spooky festivities, however you choose to celebrate the season.
Cervical screening is one of the best ways to protect yourself from cervical cancer.
If you’ve missed your cervical screening, the NHS may invite you to take an HPV self-test instead.

Are you aware of ‘Cuckooing’?
Cuckooing is when criminals take over a vulnerable person’s home and use it for things such as storing drugs, for sexual exploitation purposes, or to facilitate financial abuse.
If you suspect a property is being cuckooed, call 101.
A huge thank you to everyone who took part in our Macmillan Coffee Morning last month. It was a fantastic day with some even more fantastic bakes, and together we were able to raise an incredible £538.68 for Macmillan Cancer Support! 🥳🎉

As winter looms, so do all the nasty viruses that thrive in the cold weather.
Remember, if you do have a cold or similar condition, cough and sneeze into a tissue and make sure you wash your hands thoroughly afterwards to limit the spread of germs.
Did you know there are different types of Breast Cancer you can be diagnosed with?
To catch cancer at its earliest stage, make sure you are regularly checking your chest for abnormalities and please seek medical advice if something doesn’t feel quite right.
Just because we take your blood sometimes does not mean we’re vampires…
But please remember, if you do require a blood test in surgery, your appointment must now be pre-booked in advance. This is to avoid long waits and eliminate the risk of not being seen.
