‼️SERVICE DISRUPTION ‼️ Monday 19th January

We are sorry to report that there is an IT issue across the Somerset NHS, which means our internet has gone down and we are unable to access patient medical records.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience but it is outside our control and is affecting other practices too.

Please avoid calling the surgery for routine matters at this time as we cannot access your records.

We will update you as soon as have more news.

Thank you

Children under 6 are now being offered the MMRV vaccine instead of MMR as part of the NHS routine childhood vaccination programme.

This replaces the existing MMR vaccine and adds protection against chickenpox, alongside measles, mumps and rubella.

You don’t need to do anything — your GP will contact you when your child is due.

Have Your Say
We’d really value your feedback.
Please complete our short, anonymous survey to help us learn:

How comfortable you feel about AI scribes being used
