Services

Antenatal Clinic

The practice provides a full antenatal and postnatal service together with our midwife, Katie Gadsby. This involves shared care between the midwife, the doctor and the hospital.

The surgery times are as follows:

Monday 1.30 pm onwards (Bolsover)
Wednesday 1.30 pm onwards (Bolsover)
Thursday 1.30 pm onwards (Glapwell)

A home booking service is also available. For More information see the midwifery notice board in the waiting area.

Child Health

We undertake all primary immunisations of children ourselves and operate a recall system. The practice was one of the first in Derbyshire to introduce regular child development clinics and has been involved since 1971. Clinics are held in conjunction with our attached health visitors and a recall system operates for these clinics as well.

Counsellor

Our counsellor is available to help with emotional and stress related difficulties. Referrals are made following preliminary assessment by your doctor.

Family Planning

The practice provides a full family planning service by appointment. There is also a Family Planning Clinic held at the surgery on a Saturday morning between 10.30 and 12 noon by appointment only. Please phone 01246 827565 to arrange an appointment. This includes coil and implant fittings and removals as well as "emergency" contraception. Emergency contraception is a valid reason to ask for an urgent appointment.

Minor Surgery

The partners undertake various minor operations including injection of joints, removal of cysts, cautery, etc. Dr S H Nissenbaum has a regular minor surgical list at the Bolsover Surgery. Patients should make an appointment to discuss any minor operations.

PODIATRY

Podiatry is located at Welbeck Road Health Centre.

Private Medicals

We will attempt to fit these in at a convenient time at Bolsover Surgery. Please bring any forms to reception when you book your medical. A deposit is payable on booking.

Although the practice does not wish to promote private medical treatment, if you do have private medical insurance cover, it may be helpful in certain circumstances to tell the doctor.
