The practice were delighted to welcome The Cookie Jar Foundation recently.
We now have a vein finder- so if you’ve had trouble before with “tricky veins” “ones that hide” or “deep veins” then let the team know and we can try and make the experience a little easier in the future.
The machine was kindly donated to us by this local charity who we supported during our fundraising for the Edinburgh Marathon in 2024!

We are absolutely delighted to share that we have placed our very first vein finder into a GP surgery!

Last Wednesday , we officially handed over a vein finder (our 37th) to Inverkeithing Medical Group. Although the presentation took place at their Dalgety Bay branch, the device will be based in Inverkeithing at the main surgery, where it will be available for patients who struggle with blood tests and needle procedures.

Our ethos has always been simple: where the money is raised is where the money is spent. So it feels incredibly special to see funds raised by Dalgety Bay Business Network Group now supporting patients at our local doctor’s surgery — the very practice our family has used for years.

Knowing this equipment will help make procedures a little easier and less stressful for patients means the world to us.

Thank you, as always, for continuing to support The Cookie Jar Foundation and helping us keep Christopher’s memory making a difference every single day 💚

Triage Telephone Appointments

Telephone triage appointments help us manage demand and support more patients. However, we are still experiencing a high number of missed calls, even though appointments are usually booked only a few hours beforehand.

As a gentle reminder, please ensure your phone is switched on, kept with you, and the volume turned up (even if you step away briefly), so you don’t miss your call. Unfortunately, GPs and clinicians do not have the capacity to make repeated call attempts.

During your call, the clinician may ask you to attend the surgery in person or, if appropriate, to email photographs. Please be prepared for either option when booking your appointment.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
