Important Information about the Coronavirus (COVID-19)

Apologies but due to the Coronavirus, the surgery is now placing a contingency plan to only allow telephone consultations unless necessary to come in. Reception staff or a clinician will ask you about your symptoms. This is for the safety for everyone as they can direct you to the right person. PLEASE DO NOT TURN UP AT THE SURGERY UNLESS INSTRUCTED.

NO WALK IN APPOINTMENTS

NHS 111 has an online coronavirus service that can tell you if you need medical help and advise you what to do. Use this service:
