Following the latest announcement, please do not call the surgery to book your COVID Vaccine. We will contact you. This stops the demand on the phone with long waiting times. If you have any questions about the vaccine please contact us on www.awsurgeries.co.uk - Reception and queries - contact the practice. We can answer your queries here. Thank you for your support and understanding.

BLOOD BOTTLE SHORTAGE.

A supplier to the NHS has advised us of a global shortage of some equipment used for taking blood tests.

Anyone who needs a test for urgent health problems will still get one, but where your clinician recommends that it’s safe to do so, then you may be asked to come back for a test at a later date, or your appointment may be rescheduled.

Given the nature of the shortage, we cannot give an exact date for when the test will be rescheduled, but please be assured that if your condition or symptoms require it, then you will get a test, and we will be re-booking your test when supplies become more easily available.

If your condition or symptoms change or get worse, please contact the NHS as you would normally.
