COVID UPDATE

We are now giving 2^nd vaccinations and patients will be invited between approximately 6-9 weeks after their first vaccine – If you have not heard and it is over 10 weeks please contact the Surgery. Your second vaccine will be the same vaccine type as your first.

We will be starting to invite patients over the age of 25 in a few weeks and we encourage you to please take up the offer of this important vaccine when you are invited. If you have not updated the Surgery with your mobile number please do so, so that the invite can reach you in a timely manner.

If you require any assistance with booking please call 01276 707100

Surgery phased reopening

As I am sure you can appreciate it has been an extremely difficult time for all NHS staff and that includes our team.

We are grateful for your ongoing support and we thank you for your patience.

From 17^th May the following changes will be taking place:

Heatherside and Old Dean Surgeries will re-open their doors- we will still be following strict Covid measures and signs will be in place to help guide you.

Nurses and GPs will be working from Heatherside and Old Dean sites and may ask you to visit them at those sites if they need to see you (some have already started this)

All appointments will remain as telephone and video consultations in the first instance and the clinician will only ask you to attend if deemed necessary

You will be able to book a routine phone call 3 weeks in advance

We will continue to have the 1 phone number 01276 670056 that covers all 3 sites

Further updates will follow, in the meantime please continue to be patient and please understand that we will take a Zero Tolerance stance to any abuse towards any staff member regardless of the reason

Please call us or do an online consultation if you need medical attention where your request can not be dealt with by a pharmacist or 111.
