Appointments for our Nurse-led Services

Nurse Services

Fleet Street Clinic has a team of highly-qualified nurses, experienced in dealing with a wide range of medical conditions including wound care, stitch and staple removal following surgery or injury, and instant testing.

As well as being highly experienced, our nurses provide a safe, friendly and confidential environment where you are able to freely discuss any health concerns, with full on-site medical backup.

They will talk you through each procedure before undertaking any treatment, and can recommend any further treatment that may be necessary.

Any personal information shared will be held in confidence and all treatment will be carried out to the highest standards of care.

Wound Care and Dressing Change

If you have had a recent injury that has required a dressing, this may need frequent changing. Some wound dressings need to be changed every couple of days in order to maximise healing and prevent infections. This can be very hard to do correctly yourself.

For slowly-healing wounds, we have a wide range of specialised non-adherent dressings available that can facilitate healing and reduce scarring.

Our experienced nurses can change your dressing quickly and in a sterile environment. They will also monitor how the wound is healing, offer advice on care, check for signs of infection, and can arrange swabs, culture or referral if needed. (If needed, specialist dressings are at additional cost.)

Stitch Removal

If you have stitches that need to be removed following recent surgery in the UK or abroad, or following a recent injury, one of our nurses can painlessly remove the stitches for you.

Staple Removal

If you have staples that need to be removed following recent surgery in the UK or abroad, or following a recent injury, one of our nurses can painlessly remove the staples for you.

Ear Wax Removal

Ear wax causing ‘blocked ears’ can be uncomfortable and even painful.

It can muffle your hearing, making everyday activities inconvenient and frustrating.

We offer ear syringing and microsuction to clean your ears.

During your appointment, our Practice Nurse will advise which option is best for you.

Instant HbA1C Test

An instant HbA1C test can provide valuable information about your diabetes status, since its blood level gives an indication of the amount of glucose in the blood over the preceding 3-month period. Our rapid HbA1C test therefore helps with screening and monitoring of diabetes and pre-diabetes. A small blood sample is taken using a finger prick test, and your results are available within the same 15-minute nurse appointment. This is a quick, easy and accurate way to check for and monitor diabetes.

Our nurse will also check that the wound is properly healed and check for infection.

If your needs are complex, please call us to discuss the details and we'll let you know if we can help.
