Antenatal

Friday 2.00 - 4.00pm

The midwives run this clinic. If you become pregnant you will be given a ‘booking appointment’ at which the midwife will ask you a few questions and carry out some general health checks. You will be given advice about your choice of places for delivery. You will be seen regularly throughout your pregnancy either at the practice or at the local hospital, or both.
