🎅🏻 We need your help to save Santa! 🎅🏻

Santa has run his round for decades now across Doncaster raising money for hundreds of local causes but each year his helpers are getting fewer and fewer.

We've already lost two sleighs in our area in recent years due to a lack of volunteers: Rotary Club of Doncaster and Edlington and Warmsworth Lions, which now means that no kids in Edlington, Warmsworth or the top end of Balby have been able to see Santa down their street in the last few years 😭

Santa runs off of two things, Volunteers and Christmas Spirit ✨

Now we know you all have plenty of Christmas Spirit however we could really do with more volunteers to help bring memories for years to come.

We have 10 volunteers this year, down from 12 last year, who are out each night to bring the sleigh to as many houses as possible but with more volunteers we could do so much more and keep Santa going for our children and grandchildren ❤️

Please help us save Christmas for years to come. Check out how in the comments below 👇

Thank you for your understanding and support.

Happy 60th Birthday to our lovely Nurse Sally! We hope you have a fantastic day (working!) Love your Oakwood Family💚

🌞 Good Morning, Everyone!

Heads up if you’re heading out today: the roundabout near McAuley School has four-way traffic lights in action, and it’s causing some serious slowdowns. 🚦

If you’ve got an appointment with us, please plan for extra travel time so you arrive stress-free. Stay safe and patient out there! 💙

🎀 Today is National Mammography Day 🎀

At The Oakwood Surgery, we’re proud to support this vital reminder during Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Early detection saves lives. Mammograms can identify changes in breast tissue long before symptoms appear and that means treatment can begin earlier, with better outcomes.

✅ If you're aged 50–70 and haven't had a mammogram in the last 3 years, you're eligible for NHS breast screening.
✅ If you're younger but have concerns or a family history, speak to your GP - we're here to listen and guide.

💬 Let’s normalise talking about breast health.
📅 Let’s prioritise screening.
💗 Let’s protect each other.

Whether it’s booking your own check or encouraging someone you love, today is the day.

🕗 Update to Our Opening Hours – From October 🕕

In line with national contract changes coming into effect this October, Oakwood Surgery’s doors and phone lines will be open from 8:00am to 6:00pm, Monday to Friday.

This adjustment reflects a formal update to our hours, rather than a change in how we’ve been supporting our patients day to day. As always, our team remains committed to providing safe, timely care - whether through appointments, advice, or signposting to the most appropriate service.

We kindly ask that patients continue to use our services thoughtfully, and where possible, consider online options for routine queries and prescription requests.

Thank you for your continued support and understanding 💙

🛡️ Your Comfort Matters - Chaperones 🛡️

We’re committed to providing safe, respectful, and dignified care for every patient. That’s why we offer chaperones during any examination or procedure - especially those of an intimate nature.

A chaperone is a trained member of our team who can be present to support you, ensure clear communication, and help maintain professional boundaries. You can request a chaperone at any time, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your needs.

💬 If you would like a chaperone - just let us know when booking your appointment or speaking with your clinician.

Your wellbeing is our priority. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

⚠️⚠️Tylenol (Paracetamol) and pregnancy. ⚠️⚠️

We’ve seen recent headlines linking Tylenol (paracetamol) with autism. We want to reassure our patients: there is currently no definitive scientific evidence to support this claim.

Paracetamol remains one of the safest and most widely recommended medications for pain and fever relief during pregnancy. Global health authorities continue to support its use when taken as directed.

Let’s keep fear out of the conversation and focus on facts. 💙
