Doctor

The practice operates at four locations:

The main surgery is at Beauforth House, Ferrybridge and there are branch surgeries at The Anne Sharpe Centre, Byram and at the Castleford Health Centre, Castleford. A wide range of quality clinical services are available at our new Beauforth House Clinic, Ferrybridge.

Minor Surgery

We have the facilities to perform minor surgical procedures under local anaesthetic. These include removal of cysts, moles, skin-tags, warts etc.

This should be discussed and arranged with your doctor during a normal surgery consultation.

Musculo Skeletal & Sports Injuries

Dr. Mone is a specialist in disorders of joints and muscles, particularly sports injuries. Referrals are taken from within the practice, other GP practices and from Physiotherapists.

Coronory Heart Disease

If you have suffered a problem with coronary heart disease (CHD) then we try to look after you as well as possible. We have a dedicated clinic where a senior nurse with special training in heart disease checks that you are doing well. Dr Earnshaw is the CHD lead for Wakefield District PCT and has developed an interest in this area of medicine. The Practice checks regularly that our CHD patients are all on the correct medicine eg aspirin, that their cholesterol and blood pressure is well controlled and that they are encouraged not to smoke.

Non-NHS Examinations

Medical examinations can be provided for special purposes such as elderly driver, pre-employment, fitness to undertake sports/travel, insurances etc. Please make a separate appointment for which the appropriate fee will be payable.

Sickness Certificates

If you are absent from work due to illness for less than 7 days, you needs to obtain a form SC2 from your employer or HMRC. If after 7 days, you are still unwell, you will need to see a doctor who may then issue a medical certificate. For illnesses of less than 7 days, a private certificate can be issued if your employer requires one. A fee is payable for this item.
