NHS Wales App Update:

We have been advised that a new feature in the NHS Wales App went live on 31st October 2025 to support patients awaiting secondary care outpatient appointments.
This feature enables patients to view hospital referrals (once accepted) and first outpatient appointments booked from that date onwards. It gives patients improved visibility over their secondary care journey, helping reduce confusion and unnecessary contact with GP practices.

What patients can do in the App:
• See when they’ve been added to a hospital waiting list
• View upcoming hospital appointment details
• Access links to typical waiting times and advice on staying well while they wait
• Find contact information for their local health board if they wish to request a change or cancellation

Important clarification:
This feature does not include any GP-held information or primary care appointment data, nor does it provide access to a patient’s Summary Care Record (SCR) or Welsh GP Record (DCR).
Patients cannot change or cancel appointments directly in the App—they are signposted to the appropriate Health Board contact team instead.

Who it’s for:
Patients who:
• Are registered with a Welsh GP and use the NHS Wales App
• Have a referral or first outpatient appointment recorded in an NHS Wales secondary care system (WPAS or C&V PMS) from 31st October 2025 onwards
Referrals made entirely within English NHS systems will not appear in the App.

We have plenty of vaccinations available. If you are eligible and have not yet had your vaccination please contact us to book your appointment.

Flu is circulating earlier than usual this autumn – and our medical director Dr Clara Day is encouraging everyone eligible to make sure they have the annual NHS flu vaccine.

“Flu can be incredibly dangerous and can cause serious illness,” Dr Day said. “For others, it can become a nasty inconvenience.

“The flu vaccine can protect you against developing flu, and more significant symptoms and complications.

“So please protect yourself and protect your family by having your vaccine this year.”
