Happy Valentine’s Day!

Your heart works extra hard for you. Here's a reminder to take a moment and look after the organ that looks after you.

You can do this with small everyday changes – like keeping active, eating a balanced diet and stopping smoking – that all contribute toward keeping your heart healthy and happy.

We’ll be upgrading to a new computer system from Wednesday 25 February to Tuesday 3 March 2026.

During this time our practice will be operating as emergency appointments only while the new system is installed and our team completes their training. We really appreciate your patience and understanding during this time as some requests and queries may take a little longer than usual while we get up to speed.

Thanks so much for bearing with us during this important upgrade!
