Just a little heads up for all our customers.
We have had a very large volume of prescriptions over the last week and we are doing our very best to get through them all, and on top of that we have got a new system in place which is taking slightly longer until we get used to it.
If you are waiting on a prescription could you all please wait on your txt message unless you are in urgent need of it.

Many thanks
Well Team

‼Patient Notice - Triage Closed‼

The practice is currently experiencing unmanageable demand for urgent care. Due to clinical staff shortage and taking account of our practice team’s safety, and the availability of other options for patient care, we are not able to book in any more on the day appointment patients today and our triage is closed.

We are still open for routine inquiries.

We are sorry for this inconvenience, which is beyond our control.
We are following the BMA safe working guidance.
If you have an urgent medical problem that you believe cannot wait, then you should seek help from other NHS agencies including NHS24 on 111 after 6pm or through accident and emergency if you feel needs assessment sooner
