Good news! We have flu clinic appointments available on most Saturdays in December, plus a newly added clinic on Friday 5th December.

If you’re eligible for a free flu jab, now is the perfect time to get protected. We’ve secured plenty of stock, so please get booked in as we head into the worst of the winter season. Stay safe and well! ❄✨

Reminder: The practice will be closing at 2.30pm today and reopening at 8am tomorrow morning. Appointment availability is therefore halved today, please be prepared to attend the Urgent Care Centre if your symptoms are urgent. Your local pharmacy and NHS 111 are also available to help.

Patient Notice: Changes to Sharps Bin Collection Service

We would like to update you on important changes to the sharps bin collection service provided by Milton Keynes Council for residents who self-medicate.

Milton Keynes Council has introduced a new system for doorstep collection of sharps bins from residential properties.

Patients must now arrange their own collection online by completing a short form.

Link to request a sharps bin collection:
https://www.milton-keynes.gov.uk/waste-and-recycling/report-or-request-it/request-clinical-waste-collection

All patients with regular repeat sharps bin requests will receive this link via message.

Need Help?
Patients are encouraged to complete the online form themselves.
If a patient is unable to do this, the surgery can assist by completing the form on their behalf.

Important Notice:
Collection of sharps bins at CMK Medical Centre will end on 01/01/2026. Please ensure you are aware of this when planning for future sharps disposal.

If you have any questions, please contact the surgery for further guidance.

Exciting Update from CMK Medical Centre:

We want to let our patients know that our GPs are now using—or will soon begin using—a tool called Surgery Intellect during consultations. This tool acts as a clinical scribe, helping GPs accurately capture consultation notes in real time, so they can focus more on listening and engaging with you.

Important: Your privacy and comfort are our top priorities. Before Surgery Intellect is used during your consultation, your GP will always ask for your consent. You have full control over whether scribing is turned on.

We believe this technology will help improve the accuracy of your records and allow GPs to spend more time on what matters most: your health.

Thank you for your trust and understanding.

🏠 Important Update – Housing Letters from Your GP 🏠

We understand that housing problems can have a big impact on your health and wellbeing. However, please note that GPs are not able to provide housing letters at a patient’s request.

If the council or housing authority requires medical information to support your application or review, they will write to us directly with your consent. We will then provide the necessary details in response to their request.

This ensures the information is accurate, relevant, and shared securely.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
