To all Patients,
In light of the new Coronavirus guidelines, in order to reduce spread & protect vulnerable patients, from Monday, 16th March until further notice, we are suspending walk-in GP appointments.
All appointments to see a GP will be triaged by a telephone consult with a GP. If the GP thinks that you need to be seen face to face, you will be given a specified appointment. For some health concerns or medication reviews, we may well be able to help you over the telephone.
Therefore, if you think you need to speak to a GP, please ring the surgery between the hours of 8.15 am & 5.00pm, Monday to Friday, and a receptionist will give you further instructions. Please note these are not our opening hours but times between which a GP will be able to phone you back.
If you are concerned that you may have symptoms of coronavirus, please read this NHS guidance first: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/ Please do not present to the surgery.
Providing that you do not meet the criteria for self-isolation:
-
Wychwood Pharmacy will continue to remain open for medication collection. If you are self-isolating please ask a relative, friend or neighbour if they can collect you medication.
-
Routine and necessary nurse surgeries and clinics will continue as usual.
This is a temporary measure to protect patients and staff. Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
