As you will have seen in the news the early rise in Flu cases in the UK has continued into November. There are concerns that this years peak may be even higher than the recent bad winters we had in 2022-23 and 2024-25.

We have vaccinated around 1500 patients so far and will be vaccinating the housebound next week. We still have some stock left, so if you have put off having the jab and still want it please contact us as soon as possible so we can get you protected.

Although it may have passed you by there was a lot in the medical news last week about the government imposing on GP surgeries online consultations during core working hours (08:00 - 18:30).

For many practices, including ourselves, it didn't amount to any great changes as we have had this service for several years anyway. The dark blue box on the front page of our website takes you to a series of questions to answer to ensure you get the help you need.

In about half the cases this will be a doctor's appointment, the rest are mainly admin and prescription queries. If it is something that can be dealt with on the 'phone a doctor will ring you and if it looks like you'll need to come in reception will either call you or send you a link so you can book a time of your choosing. Please note this is NOT a service for urgent or emergency problems - you should call us. The service only runs during core hours.

If you don't want to use the online service it's still completely fine to call us, email us, write to us or come down in person (however if you do come down in person this doesn't mean you will be seen straight away). The online form is just another route to contact us.

Just a reminder that if you get a kit through the post for the bowel cancer screening test please send it back. We do get notified when they are not returned and quite a lot aren't. Completing it might save your life. If you have missed the test you can contact the screening service on 0800 707 60 60 to get another one sent out.

24/10/2025

Just a reminder that we are offering later evening appointments on Mondays and Tuesdays and early morning appointments on Thursdays. If you would like to book these please contact reception in teh usual way.

21/10/2025

Just a reminder the the Flu and Covid vaccination clinics are still running. The graphs show the current national levels of both these viruses based on hospital data and they show that the rise in Flu cases we get every year is a little earlier than the last few years. Covid levels remain very variable with no seasonal pattern emerging yet.

If you haven't already done so, please contact us to book a vaccination appointment.

20/10/2025

This month our notice board has lots of information about breast cancer (in both women and men). Please have a look when you are next at the surgery. For more information on the NHS breast screening program please click on:

This year's main flu and covid vaccination clinics start next week (children's flu has already started). You should have received a text reminder and booking link, or been contacted by one of our staff by now, but if you haven't or have missed it, please contact reception to book these in.

The Covid vaccination criteria are different from last year's campaign and only the over 75s or immunocompromised are eligible. For more details about which jabs you should get please click here:
