The practice follows the recommended guidelines from the National Cervical Screening Programme. Cervical Screening should be undertaken from the age of 25 with three-yearly checks until the age of 49, and then a check every 5 years between the ages of 50 and 64. Cervical smears can be done during surgery hours, usually by the Practice Nurse.
When you book your appointment, please tell the receptionist that it is for a cervical smear so that enough time can be allocated.
