Antenatal Care and Pregnancy Support with Dr Ruqia Zafar GP Peterborough

If you are pregnant, our antenatal services guide you from early pregnancy through postnatal recovery. In addition, we collaborate with Peterborough City Hospital maternity services for specialist care. Furthermore, our team provides personalised advice to promote a safe and healthy pregnancy.

Asthma and Respiratory Health

All asthma patients receive an annual review with either Dr Ruqia Zafar or one of our trained nurses. Additionally, we provide medication reviews, lifestyle guidance, and symptom management plans. As a result, patients can manage their asthma more effectively and enjoy improved wellbeing.

Carer Services and Support

We recognise the important role carers play in our community. Therefore, we ask patients to inform us if they have a carer. In addition, we connect carers with local support networks and resources.

Cervical Smears and Women’s Health

Women aged 25 to 65 should attend a cervical smear every three years. Moreover, our clinic offers a private and comfortable environment for these essential health checks.

We provide regular vaccination clinics to protect children from preventable illnesses. Similarly, our health visitors carry out developmental assessments and offer guidance for parents.

Patients in rural areas can collect medicines directly from our dispensary. Additionally, repeat prescriptions are processed quickly for convenience.
