We continue to experience the internet issues which are affecting many of the surgeries across the country. Meaning we have had very little or (as I type) no access to medical records.
Our entire staff have worked really hard all day in difficult circumstances and your patience and understanding has been much appreciated.

We’re currently experiencing an internet outage affecting some GP practices across Lancashire and South Cumbria. Our teams are working hard to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience. If you need urgent assistance, please contact your practice by phone.

Thank you for your understanding.

We are currently unable to access some functions on our computer system due to a county wide outage.
Please bear with us while our staff work hard to do their best with the facilities we have.

Please cancel it!!
We run a strict DNA policy and patients may be asked to leave our list if they persist in failing to turn up.

We ask our patients who need to attend the surgery today to be mindful of the road closures in place on Centenary Way and Finsley Gate in Burnley.

08/07/2025

Please be mindful of the road closures on and around Yorkshire Street this lunchtime due to the Duke of Lancaster’s Regiment parade.

The Duke of Lancaster’s Regiment is to parade through Burnley in a Freedom of the Borough event tomorrow (Tuesday).

We have received an increasing number of calls from our patients regarding the Mounjaro weight loss injections after the recent media coverage. At present only a very small number (approximately 0.1%) of our patients are eligible and we will make contact with them when appropriate.
Please do not contact the surgery as our clinicians are unable to prescribe the injection for anyone who does not fit the strict criteria’s laid out.
Thank you for your continued support of our services.
