Patient Notice ❗️

We have recieved notification from a local GP Practice that one of their patients has recieved a phone call from someone masquerading as a medical professional associated with their Practice. They alleged they were a "senior health advisor" who worked alongside the Practice in question.

The caller engaged the patient by asking about their medical problems, both old and ongoing. Once a rapport had been established, the caller then offered them some medication which they could try at a cost, then proceeded to ask for bank details to proceed with payment.

The number of the caller was 01900 516 558, a number that has previously been associated with fraudsters for vehicle accident insurance call scams.

Please remain vigilant.

Just because you’ve had once doesn’t mean you won’t get it again. Hand sanitisers won't kill norovirus, but washing your hands regularly with soap and warm water can help limit the spread. Stay at home for 48 hours after symptoms stop
