Face Coverings and Respiratory Symptoms

We would like to make patients aware of current guidance for GP surgeries regarding flu and other respiratory infections. If you have symptoms of a respiratory infection, such as a cough, fever, or high temperature, please follow the advice below when attending an appointment in person.

If you are experiencing symptoms of a respiratory infection, including flu, COVID-19, or the common cold:

Please arrive at your appointment time and no earlier, to help reduce the risk of infection spreading.
You are advised to wear a face mask while waiting to be seen and during your appointment.
Face masks are available in the main door on entering the building or from the reception desk if you do not have one.
These measures help protect vulnerable patients and our staff.

Face mask exemptions
If you are unable to wear a face mask due to a health condition or disability, please inform the practice in advance of your appointment. This allows us to make suitable arrangements to ensure everyone’s safety.

Keeping everyone safe
Wearing a face covering when you have respiratory symptoms and following instructions from practice staff helps keep the clinical environment safe for all patients and staff.

Please note that guidance may change depending on national advice and local infection levels.

This week is our last 5 day full working week before the Christmas and New Year breaks.

We will be closed on Thursday 25th and Friday 26th December and then again on Thursday 1st and Friday 2nd January.

Dont forget to allow plenty time if you need any medication ordered before the Christmas or New Year holidays, Also to remember, if you order via the pharmacy this can sometimes take a little longer, please check with your own pharmacy on their ordering, collection and closure dates over the festive period.

We wish you all a very Merry Christmas 🎅

Today we delivered donations to Wellesley Parish Church, Methil that have been collected by staff and patients at the practice for the Christmas appeal!

Blown away with the generosity, I’m sure with the amount we have collected along with the donations the church already have will put a lot of smiles on faces accross Levenmouth this Christmas 🎅

Still time to donate directly to the church, All donations to be handed in by Sunday 7th December 🎁

Work to build an extension to Airlie Medical Practice in Methil is due to begin next week.

Initial works will start on Monday 8 December, with building work commencing 5 January. The project, which is expected to be completed by Autumn 2026, will create:

✅ Five new consulting rooms
✅ One new Community Treatment and Care (CTAC) room
✅ Two additional admin rooms

What patients at Airlie need to know:

🚗 Only four spaces will be lost, so patient parking should not be an issue. However, traffic may be busier due to construction vehicles.

👂 Piling work starts 5 January for about 10 days and will be noisy. The practice may offer telephone consultations during this period if needed.

⚫🟡 Alternative parking is available on the main road and at East Fife Football Club, who have kindly agreed to let the practice use their parking spaces, if required.
