We have received a number of calls regarding the return of medical equipment that is no longer required. Sadly Ashfields can not take these from patients/families so please if you have equipment that is no longer in use, contact the office who provided it.

We have had a number of items just left at the Practice recently yet we have no method of disposal. please arrange with the Service provider to return or dispose of medical equipment.

We appreciate your understanding 😀❤
