The surgery will be closed 1st & 2nd January and re-open Monday 5th.

While we are closed, GP cover is available through the Ayrshire Urgent Care Service which can be accessed by calling telephone number 111. There will also be emergency pharmacy cover throughout Ayrshire.

Please do stock up on the usual over the counter cold/flu/minor ailments medications (which you can easily pick up from the supermarket), prior to the new year period, as there are high numbers of flu and minor illnesses circulating in the community.

📢 Help Us Help You – Don’t Miss Your Nurse Appointments!

In July alone, our practice had 66 missed nurse appointments. That’s 66 opportunities lost for patients to receive vital care, and 66 chances where someone else could have been seen sooner.

💡 Why It Matters:

Missed appointments delay care for others.
They waste valuable NHS resources.
They can impact your own health and treatment plans.
We understand that life gets busy, but if you can’t make your appointment, please let us know as soon as possible. Cancelling in advance allows us to offer that slot to someone else in need.

✅ How You Can Help:

Ensure we have your mobile number for the appointment reminder service.
Let us know if you need to reschedule.
Encourage friends and family to do the same.
Your time is valuable and so is ours. Let’s work together to make sure every appointment counts.

Thank you for your support
