If you’re aged between 54 and 74, and registered with a GP, you are sent a FIT (Faecal Immunochemical Test) kit every 2 years. If you’re over 74, you can request a kit (see ‘How to get a screening kit’ below). 

NHS breast screening checks use x-rays to look for cancers that are too small to see or feel. All women aged 50 up to their 70th birthday are invited for breast screening every three years. The NHS Breast Screening Service send out first invitations some time between 50th and 53rd birthdays. 

If you are 71 years and over you remain at risk of breast cancer but will not receive invitations after your 71st birthday. However, you may still request a screening every 3 years by contacting your local breast screening unit – details of which can be obtained by clicking the Find Breast Screening Services button below.

We now have our own in house Physio services on Mondays.

This service does not require a referral and will be an initial face to face appointment.

The physio can refer to secondary care and we also have a minor surgery clinic in the surgery where patients can be referred to for steroid injections if this is necessary.

MSK getUbetter Recovery App

The getUBetter app is provided free of charge by Kingston CCG for patients registered at Chessington Park Surgery. It can be accessed on a Smartphone or on the Web and guides you day-by-day through a sequence of exercises and tips to help you get better from a range of new or recurrent musculoskeletal conditions:

• Lower back pain
• Back and leg pain
• Neck Pain
• Shoulder Pain
• Ankle Pain
• Knee Pain
• Soft Tissue Lower Limb

You will be referred to the App by one of our GPs or Physio, or you can self-register by clicking on the link.

Please use an email address that is unique to you and select the condition you need help to manage. You will then be sent an email with all the information you need to get started.

You can download the getUBetter App to your Smartphone for easiest access or use the Webapp. If you develop another condition register again with the same email address, select your new condition and it will be added to your account.

Special appointments are required for items such as HGV, PSV, insurance medicals and paternity testing etc. Please ask the receptionist for an appointment.

Please note that GP practices are entitled to charge for any work that is not NHS recommended; BMA fees will apply.

Healthcare assistants deliver and assist clinical staff in the provision of treatment, preventative care, health promotion and patient education.

We are now able to offer appointments with our Nurse Practitioner, who is an experienced Nurse who has undertaken further medical training that enables her to see patients with minor illnesses, infections, and injuries and also more long term things like asthma, contraception (but not coil fitting) and women’s health. She does not provide antenatal or mental health care.

Do consider seeing our Nurse Practitioner as you may get an appointment sooner than if you wait for a Doctor.

We hope that you find the Nurse Practitioner a useful addition to the range of services offered at Chessington Park Surgery.

If you are aged 75 years or over, you should be seen annually, either by your doctor, the practice nurse, district nurse or health visitor. This can be arranged at the surgery or, if that is not possible, a home visit will be arranged.

A trained counsellor is available for counselling. Please ask your doctor for a referral.

The practice has an audiology service one a month. You need to see the GP to make sure you have no other symptoms before being referred to the service. Please contact reception for more information on this service.

You will need to see you GP before any blood taking appointment can be book with our Healthcare Assistant. Please contact reception for more information on this service.
