You have every right to expect complete safety while in our surgery. We therefore employ the highest standards of cross-infection control – using a combination of methods – to ensure the surgery environment achieves clinical sterility.

Our clinical staff are regularly trained and updated in cross-infection control techniques. We have a written statement of cross infection control policy which is regularly audited.

After every patient, all instruments are sterilised with an autoclave, and other surgical items are supplied ready-sterilised and disposed of after use. We use every opportunity to use disposable once only items even though there they are often a more expensive option.

All surfaces are disinfected, and cups, gloves and hand towels are used only once before being thrown away.
