Coronavirus COVID-19 Guidance
If you have symptoms associated with coronavirus including a new continuous cough and a high temperature, you are advised to stay at home for 7 days.
Do not book a GP appointment or attend your GP practice. If you live with other people, they should also stay at home for at least 14 days, to avoid spreading the infection outside the home.
If your symptoms are serious, or get worse, NHS 111 has an online coronavirus service that can tell you if you need further medical help and advise you what to do.
Only call 111 direct if you are advised to do so by the online service or cannot go online.
For the latest COVID-19 advice please visit www.nhs.uk/coronavirus.
If you have COVID 19 symptoms with other health issues or are calling about non COVID issues please hold to speak with a member of practice staff.
We apologise if you are having trouble getting through to the surgery however we are being inundated with more calls than usual due to COVID-19 . Please bear with reception staff during this time who are working hard to keep the practice running efficiently at this difficult time.
Due to COVID-19, we would ask that you consider if you need to see us at this time. To minimise potential contact we are suggesting using a telephone triage appointment system where possible.
We are NOT currently cancelling routine GP day to day things however we must consider if things are really necessary or not therefore all health promotion appointments i.e. LD checks, SMI checks, healthchecks will be rescheduled at a later date.
