To help our clinicians spend more time talking with you and less time typing, we are now using a new NHS‑approved tool called Scribe during some appointments.

🗣️ What is Scribe?
Scribe helps your clinician by turning parts of your conversation into written notes.
It does NOT record your voice - it simply creates text that your clinician checks before adding to your medical record.

💬 You are always in control
If you’d prefer not to use it, just tell us - that’s absolutely fine.

🔒 Your privacy comes first
No audio is saved, and all information remains securely within NHS‑approved systems.
Scribe is simply a digital note‑taking tool designed to
✔️ improve accuracy
✔️ reduce admin time
✔️ help clinicians focus fully on you

If you have any questions, please see the FAQ’s on our website: www.langleycornersurgery.nhs.uk/policies/scribe/

Did you know, you can order a repeat prescription even when your GP surgery is closed over the weekend?

While it's on your mind, just tap the NHS App, and get it off your to-do list.

There has been an accident at Tushmore Roundabout (with the traffic lights), causing significant delays in the area.

Please leave extra time for your journey and take an alternative route to avoid being late for your appointment. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

This week is Cervical Cancer Prevention week. Taking care of your cervical health is one of the most important things you can do - and we’re here to make it as easy and comfortable as possible.
Cervical screening helps prevent cancer - and you have choices to make the appointment work for you.

Did you know you can:
✔ Ask for a female clinician
✔ Request a quiet or longer appointment
✔ Bring someone with you
✔ Ask for a chaperone
✔ Be added back to the recall list if you previously opted out by mistake
Been invited for cervical screening? Put your health at the top of your to-do list and book your appointment as soon as you can.
