PPE and Masks | For Practice Administration Staff not in direct patient contact, or behind screens, masks are optional. Clinical staff will continue to wear PPE when seeing patients, but will assess risk individually. We continue to ask patients to wear masks when seeing clinicians face to face, and while waiting in the waiting room for any period. This is very important if you are ill, cough cold or temperature due to the risk of infecting vulnerable people in the surgery. Many thanks for your continued co-operation. |
Firearms Application Medical Reports- Feb 2022 new Fee | In January 2022 , the Police Firearms Licensing Authority have introduced stricter checks on new firearms applications and renewals. They now have asked applicants to obtain a report from their GP prior to renewal. This new process is comprehensive and time consuming for us, involving a GP reading an entire medical record, and vouching for the presence or absence of medical conditions. Although we understand their position, they have declined to fund or pay for this process which they have effectively transferred to the NHS. Due to the complexity of this, we will now charge £86.67 +VAT for completion of these forms, which we have to return directly to the licensing authority. |

Improved Access
We are working together with other local practices to offer more appointments in the early mornings, evenings or at weekends. Please contact your Surgery if you require more information.
Working within our current staffing capacity we are doing our best to ensure that you have access to additional appointments outside of core hours. As a result you may be offered an early morning or evening appointment. If this is something you would prefer please ask about availability when booking an appointment.
