Covid 19 Guidelines – Following the recent Government announcement we would like to advise our patients for the time being there will be NO CHANGES at the practice
The waiting room is open but with limited seating – please, only one person per appointment. If you have a booked appointment, you will be able to enter the surgery. You can either check in on the screen or with a receptionist and take a seat in the waiting room. The clinician will then come and get you.
Please continue to use the intercom if you are collecting a prescription from the dispensary – requests still need to be put in the post box by the front gate. For all reception queries, including booking appointments, please phone on the usual number.
If the doctor wishes to see you for a face to face appointment they will arrange this during the phone consultation
If you need to collect or drop off something at the surgery, please use the intercom to speak to Reception. While covid safety guidelines are still in place, please do not enter the surgery unless you have an appointment or are instructed to do so.
We have made this decision as often patients coming the surgery are sick and vulnerable. Continuing with the precautions will help protect everyone including the staff to ensure we can maintain our services
