We have been informed that some patients have been receiving scam texts which appears to come from their GP surgery and states they must respond to a link otherwise they will be removed from their registered GP surgery.

We are unsure whether any of our patients have been affected by this.

If any of our patients do receive a similar text message, please be reassured that it has not come from the surgery and we recommend that you do not click the link 📱

Knowing the signs of mouth and throat cancers could save your life. See your dentist or GP if you notice any changes in your mouth or throat that don’t get better within three weeks.

A mouth ulcer that does not heal, red or white patches in the mouth, unusual lumps or swelling in your mouth or neck, difficulty swallowing or chewing and persistent throat or ear pain are all potential signs of mouth or throat cancer.
