Face to Face appointments in GP practices

Posted on May 27th, 2020

During Covid-19 we ask that patients do not come to the surgery unless invited to do so by the practice for a face to face appointment. We are still able to assess and advise patients remotely about any concerns that they have which are not Covid-19 related. You can contact the surgery to get advice and assessment by telephone, email, and online via AskMyGP. If a clinician thinks that you need to be seen they can arrange for an appropriate appointment or perform a video consultation.

If you have symptoms which may be of Covid-19; a new persistent cough, loss or change in sense of smell or taste, an unexplained fever (temperature over 37.8), then please hang up and contact the NHS 111 Covid-19 Clinical Assessment Service by calling 111 or going online to NHS111 online.

If you are told that you are likely to have Covid-19 then please self-isolate at home for seven days, and ensure that your household contacts also self-isolate for fourteen days. If your symptoms worsen in this time please contact NHS 111 for further support and advice.

Please bear with us as we are extremely busy at this time and calls may take longer than usual to answer.
