We have noticed that several of our blood pressure (BP) machines are currently missing. If you have borrowed one of these devices, we kindly ask that you please return it to the practice as soon as possible - no questions asked.

These machines are provided as an amenity for patients who may not be able to afford their own, and missing equipment affects our ability to support others who rely on this service.

Thank you for your cooperation.
