COVID vaccines
COVID vaccinations. We will update you further as we know more.
We will work through all patients in the priority order we are given by the government. Please refrain from contacting us to ask when you’re vaccine will be due. Over 80’s are the first priority.
Patients WILL be contacted by text, phone, letter or email. We will not be relying only on text messaging or the internet as we know many people will not be able to respond in this way.
We recognise that people may be concerned about long wait for the vaccine, we are doing everything in our control to make sure everyone is vaccinated efficiently and safely.
The programme is a big challenge but we are dedicated to doing it with efficiency and care. Thank you.

Coronavirus

Due to the Coronavirus outbreak please be aware that all GP/ANP appointments at the surgery will now be telephone triaged first. This allows our GP’s/ANP’s to triage all appointment requests and adhere to the safety precautions in place at the surgery as per the most up to date advice from NHS England.

This means that booking face to face appointments via our online and automated systems have temporarily been disabled, please ring reception to book a triage appointment.

Please follow this link to read the latest advice from the NHS regarding Coronavirus… www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19

We are using a system called Care Navigation. This means that when you phone the surgery for an appointment you will be asked by the receptionist the nature of your problem.  The reception staff have been asked to do this by the GP’s.  Although you may feel uncomfortable in telling the reception staff what the problem is, please remember you only need to give minimal details e.g. ‘mental health’ or ‘sore throat’.  By sharing this information on the phone the receptionist can book your appointment with the clinician most suited to dealing with that problem as well as helping the clinician to prepare for your appointment by reading through relevant parts of your health record.
