Jubilee Bank Holiday Tuesday 5th June 2012
Please remember GP practices will be closed over the Jubilee bank holiday period on Tuesday 5th June. Please ensure that you have enough medication to see you through this day – The practice will need 48 hours notice for repeat prescriptions.
We are currently trying to put in place a new appointment reminder text messaging service, there have been some teething issues and we are working with suppliers to resolve. Once completed this service is free of charge and reminds our patients about appointments booked with GPs or practice nurses. The service automatically delivers a free SMS appointment reminder to your mobile phone the day before your appointment. You will be able to text us back if you wish to cancel the appointment. We hope that patients will find this service of benefit also creating a convenient way of cancelling unwanted appointments and it will enable us to release the appointments for other patients. Remember if you have not already registered for this service please contact our reception with your mobile number.
Disabled Access
The surgery has a ramp to enable wheelchair access to the surgery. The treatment rooms are fully accessible to wheelchairs but in some of the older rooms it is difficult to maneouvre a large wheelchair, please inform staff at the front desk if this is the case and they will ensure you are seen in a suitable room with minimal inconvenience .
