Today was our first official “go live” day with our new clinical system and, if we’re honest, it hasn’t been quite as smooth as we had hoped.

At the moment, even simple tasks such as booking appointments and completing routine admin are taking staff much longer than normal while everyone adjusts to the new system and processes. Unfortunately, this has placed significant pressure on our telephone lines, with the call queue reaching capacity for much of the day.

Our team are working incredibly hard and doing their absolute best during what is a very challenging transition period. We would therefore ask patients to please bear with us over the next few weeks while we continue to settle into the new system.

We truly appreciate your patience, kindness and support while we work through these early teething problems and return services to normal as quickly as possible.

Thank you,Tillicoultry Medical Practice

05/05/2026

Good morning, unfortunately our telephone lines are down this morning. Our I.T team are working on the issue. Please bear with us. Thank you ☺️

If you’re enjoying the outdoors, be on the look out for ticks - you might find one 🕷️

If you’ve been bitten, remove it carefully with a tick removal device (or fine-tipped tweezersif you don’t have one).

If you get a rash or feel unwell, contact your GP as soon as possible.

Important Information for patients

The practice is moving to a new clinical system. This is part of a national programme affecting all GP practices in Scotland.

Tillicoultry Medical Practice moves to the new clinical system on Friday 8 May 2026.

In preparation for this, we need to:

• Stop booking appointments – there will be NO appointments available after Thursday 30 April 2026.

• Issue medication early – if your medication is due between Thursday 30 April and Friday 8 May 2026, please order this early.
We will accept early requests from Monday 20 April 2026.

• Suspend access to Patient Access – this will be suspended and discontinued at midday on Thursday 30 April 2026.

We will have NO ACCESS to our clinical system from Friday 1 May – Monday 11 May 2026. We will therefore only be able to deal with emergency requests for care during the above-noted period.

All routine requests will need to be made after Monday 11 May 2026 once we are live with our new clinical system.

We will issue further communication to patients in the form of text message over the coming days and weeks.

Please ensure reception have your up-to-date mobile telephone number to ensure you receive these important communications.
