Attention- women between the ages of 25-60y

Smears are recommended every 3 years for women between 25 and 50 and every 5 years for women between 50 -65 except those who have had hysterectomy.

Cervical screening checks the health of your cervix and helps find any abnormal changes before they can turn into cancer- it's a test to help prevent cancer.

A recall system is now in operation, and we will contact you when your next smear is due. If you haven't had a smear test in the last 3 years- please contact us and we will book you in for an appointment. This test is quick and painless and is carried out by the Practice Nurse.

If you do not wish to continue with cervical smears- please fill out the form below and email it to us at: cwicb.centralmedicalcentre@nhs.net
