Appointments During The Covid-19 Pandemic

Please note we are operating business as usual

All appointments offered are carried out on the telephone or via video call where necessary.  Following your telephone appointment, if clinically indicated you may be offered a face to face appointment. If you are asked to come to the surgery for a face to face appointment, please remember to wear a face covering unless exempt. Please do not arrive any more than 5 minutes before your allocated appointment time. Measures are in place to keep you safe from infection during your visit to the surgery.

Remember do not come to the practice unless a GP or Nurse has asked you to do so.

The NHS is working hard to make sure that when you come in for your appointment, everything is in place to protect you from Covid-19, from new social distancing measures and our staff wearing the right personal protective equipment through to enhanced cleaning measures. We’re doing everything we can to keep you safe whilst you’re in our care.
