COVID UP-DATE
As you will be aware the Omicron variant is highly transmissible, and numbers are increasing quickly. We already have some staff off self-isolating, even though everyone is triple vaccinated. We expect further staff absences over the coming weeks, and this could have a significant impact on our ability to answer the telephones as quickly as we would like. If possible, please use other methods to contact us for non-urgent medical issues including email, letter, NHS App, SystmOnline. We would aim to get back to you within 48 hours of receiving your query.

Online Services
If you do not have access to a smartphone but do have access to a computer you can still access our online services by coming into the surgery with photo identification. We will then give you a username and password to access the same online services as the NHS app. Currently they both have the same information and features, but in future the NHS app will have much more to offer than our services.
