When phoning for an appointment you will be offered a telephone consultation with either the GP or Nurse Practitioner. Only after this has taken place will you be offered a face to face consultation later that in the day if it is deemed appropriate.
Could we please ask that you only come into the surgery when absolutely necessary.
If you usually collect your prescriptions from the surgery could you please nominate a pharmacy so that we can send them via EPS. For those of you in isolation you can even arrange for your pharmacy to deliver your medications to your home.
As you can appreciate this is an ongoing rapidly changing situation and we will try to keep you updated as and when things change, we thank you for your patience and understanding during what is an extremely busy time for the surgery and NHS in general.
