Staff shortages due to Covid. 

We are currently experiencing staff shortages due to Covid which means several Nurse led clinics had to be cancelled. We are working hard to find additional cover to provide these essential services to our patients. 

In light of this we would like to ask all patients attending the surgery who develop any flu or Covid like symptoms to inform our reception team of this at the time of appointment booking and to wear a face mask whilst on our premises. This is to protect our staff so that they can remain at work and provide essential services our patients need. 

Thank you for your understanding and support with this.
