Welcome to Hillsborough Medical Practice

With patient’s needs at the heart of everything we do, our website has been designed to make it easy for you to gain instant access to the information you need. As well as specific practice details such as opening hours and how to register, you’ll find a wealth of useful pages covering a wide range of health issues along with links to other relevant medical organisations.

DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THE PHARMACY FIRST SCHEME?

If you have an everyday health condition, you can use the Pharmacy First service to get advice and treatment from a local pharmacist, without waiting for an appointment to see your GP.

Many community pharmacies have longer opening hours including weekends and holidays, making them more accessible than a GP surgery.

You can call into the pharmacy for a private consultation with the pharmacist without needing to make an appointment.

This service is offered from every community pharmacy in NI and provides advice and if necessary treatment for conditions such as

• acne 
• ance                                                                             
• athlete’s foot
• diarrhoea
• earwax
• groin infection
• haemorrhoids
• head lice
• mouth ulcers
• oral thrush
• scabies
• threadworms
• vaginal thrush
• verrucae
