🚧 Building Work Update - Starting Wednesday 10th September 🚧

We wanted to let you know that planned building work at the surgery is due to begin tomorrow, Wednesday 10th September.

The work will be taking place at the far end of the building (the opposite end to the waiting room and GP rooms), so we’re hopeful that any disruption will be minimal. However, please note that some clinicians may be working from different rooms than usual while the work is carried out.

Your appointments won’t be affected - this is just a polite notice to keep you informed.

Thank you for your understanding and support - we’ll keep you updated throughout!
