COVID-19 Information

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are directing patients towards virtual rather than face to face consultations. We are discouraging patients from attending the clinic unless they really need to. Our aim is to avoid any contagion in our waiting rooms.

If you have symptoms of cough, sore throat, runny nose, loss of sense of smell or shortness of breath, please book a phone or video consultation to be assessed. There are no charges for consultations involving COVID swabs only.

If you need to phone reception, please be aware our phones are very busy so please bear with us. If you need prescriptions, please request these through our online system here. If you have a medical emergency or are acute unwell, please call 111.

You may find the resource compilation below helpful during lockdown.
