When diagnosed at an early stage, 98% of women survive their breast cancer for 5-years or more.

Regular breast screening can find breast cancer before you notice any symptoms.

Do you know about Bowel Cancer Screening?

Bowel cancer screening is a test you do at home that checks for signs of bowel cancer. It's offered to everyone aged 50 to 74 every 2 years.

The Harrogate Leeds and York Bowel Screening Programme have created this video to help patients understand why it is so important.

For more information about the screening visit the NHS website:

Did you know:
1. Hospital doctors in A&E, clinics and wards can issue fit notes for work. These should cover the duration of expected illness and absence from work.

2. You should self-certify for the first 7 days of any illness. You do not need a fit note prior to this.

3. We cannot backdate a new sick note to cover a time when you did not consult with us or another NHS team.
For example, if you have taken 10 days off sick with flu, but only contacted us on day 10. We can only issue the fit note from that 10th day.

4. Fit notes can also be issued “may be fit for work” if you are well enough to work but need a phased return, reduced hours or adaptions.

5. You can return before your fit note expires if you feel well enough. There is no requirement for a staff member to be “signed fit” to work by a doctor.

6. In 2022 guidance was updated - nurses, occupational therapists, pharmacists and physiotherapists can legally certify and issue fit notes (according to their training and competency). Previously only GPs or hospital doctors could do this.

▶️ Repeat Medications using the prioryCARE form

We want to let you know about some important updates to how we manage prescriptions at Priory Medical Group. These changes come in to effect on *20th October 2025* are designed to make things safer, simpler, and easier for you. We have discussed this with our Patient Participation Group (PPG) ahead of the change.

Requesting repeat prescriptions: Please use the NHS App, SystmOne Online, or ask our front-of-house team for help. We can no longer take repeat requests through the prioryCARE form or over the phone (unless this is already in place for you due to extenuating circumstances).

➡️ Keeping you informed: Our team will let you know what’s happening with your prescription at every step. You’ll always know when to expect it and if anything needs extra attention.

➡️Extra care for those who need it: Patients who need extra support or have safeguarding concerns will be prioritised and handled with extra care and attention.

➡️Safe and careful review: Our Prescription Administration Team, Clinical Pharmacists, and GPs work together to make sure your medications are safe and correct.

➡️What you need to do: Submit your repeat prescription requests using the NHS App or SystmOne Online, or ask our staff at reception for help (you can still use the prescription boxes in all our surgery sites). If you need help with accessing these options please, see the Online Services page of our website or do get in touch via the telephone or at the surgery.

If you experience side effects or need a new medication, follow the instructions in the prioryCARE form so your request reaches the right clinician. You will still be able to use the online form to request a medication review or let us know about a problem with your medication or prescription.

Keep your contact information up to date so we can get in touch with any updates.

We know change can feel confusing, but our team is here to help every step of the way. If you need guidance, have questions, or want help with the changes, please get in touch. Thank you for your understanding and for helping us make our service safer and easier for everyone.

Thank you for your patience this week - we know it is hugely disappointing when you cannot get through on the phone/online form or when your appointment is rescheduled. It has been a challenging week ensuring the safety of our patients and staff. We have worked as hard as we can to see as many patients as possible while offering high quality care.

We wish our staff that have been unwell this week a speedy recovery and a restful weekend.

We shall take this opportunity to share this Google review about Tang Hall Lane surgery on , it really does lift the teams to see positive reviews. If you think a team member put you at ease, offered you high level care or went above and beyond, do think about sending in a Google review or completing our Friends and Family test.

“Fab service from this surgery. I'm a patient with Heworth green normally. Had a fairly urgent issue, not only did they get me seen on the day yesterday, both the dr and the receptionist were lovely. Very professional and personable”

➡️ We are getting a lot of requests to “expedite” or bring forward a hospital clinic appointment or test. Sadly there are currently very long waits for scans and consultant clinics - up to and beyond a year in some cases. We are only able to ask specialists to expedite your appointment if there is a change to the clinical urgency. We ask that you are patient and do not contact us to chase up your referral unless there is a worsening/change of your symptoms.

➡️ If you have already been referred, you can contact the York Hospital Outpatient Booking Line on 01904 726400 to amend, cancel or chase any referrals.

➡️ Once a referral has been processed by the Referral Support Service (can take up to 4 weeks), your referral will be visible on the NHSapp.
