EXTREME PRESSURE FOR APPOINTMENTS

Due to extremely high demand for appointments, and constraints upon capacity, we are having to prioritise based upon clinical need, as well as utilising all members of the healthcare team. This will, unfortunately, have an impact upon waiting times for routine issues and we ask for your understanding. Some requests for clinical care may be directed to use an appropriate alternative service more suitable for your condition
