Covid vaccines will no longer be available from our surgery after the 15th of December.
Flu appointments will still be available whilst stocks last but please be aware these are running out.
Non-urgent advice:
If you do not wish to have either vaccine, please send us a message via the NHSapp/SystmOnline, SystmConnect or by post and we will update your records. If you have already booked your appointment and receive an invitation, you do not need to call the surgery to confirm your appointment. Please wear suitable clothing when you attend your appointment as there may be some outdoor queues. These may be busy clinics, please bear with us and we will aim to see patients as fast as possible.
