FAMILY PLANNING
Advice is available from all the doctors during normal surgery hours. A
nurse led clinic is run on Friday evenings (4-5.30pm). Teenagers can attend
the Teenage Advice Clinic without making an appointment on Monday afternoons
(4-6pm). Requests for the Emergency Contraception can be made at any time at
either the surgery, Ottery Hospital or at a local pharmacy. As emergency
contraception is most effective within the first 72 hours after intercourse,
you may have to ask for an urgent appointment with the nurse or doctor. For
specialized procedures such as coil or cap fitting you may be asked to come
at a specific time to allow for a longer appointment.
