We’re looking forward to welcoming you to our Flu/COVID clinic this Sunday!

A few reminders to help the day run smoothly:

✅ Please only come if you have a booked appointment – we can’t accept walk-ins. Arrive at your booked time to help us avoid queues.

📩 Bring the letter with your clinic details and barcode if you have it. If not, don’t worry – we can still vaccinate you, but you’ll need to fill in a short form on arrival.

👕 Wear loose clothing or short sleeves so the GPs can vaccinate quickly and comfortably.

ℹ️ This is solely a vaccination clinic, the reception desk will be closed and the GPs will be concentrating on vaccinating so we won't be able to help with any other queries.

Thank you for your support – it really helps the clinic run smoothly for everyone!

Vaccines in pregnancy help protect babies against different diseases as the protection you develop, passes through the placenta. Protection from birth is important as babies are more likely to be very ill and need hospital care if they catch these diseases. Following the schedule will provide the best protection for you and your baby. For more information, please speak to your midwife, GP or trusted health professional.

⚠️ Important Roadworks Information ⚠️
As many locals may already be aware, major roadworks are scheduled to begin on Glastonbury Road on Monday 8th September and are expected to continue until Tuesday 28th October.

During this time, access to Priory Health Park will be from the Glastonbury direction only. Please keep this in mind when planning your trip to the practice and allow extra time for your journey.

While we will do our best to accommodate late arrivals, we cannot guarantee that we’ll be able to see patients who arrive significantly after their scheduled appointment time.

Thank you for your understanding.

🏠If you or someone you know is housebound please read and share the following:

The Autumn/Winter COVID campaign will run from 1 October 2025 to 31 January 2026. If you are recorded as a housebound patient aged 75 or over, or are recorded as immunosuppressed by the practice, you will be contacted, and we will book your housebound appointment. This may not be at the start of the campaign, but we will contact you before 31 January 2026 to arrange your vaccination. Please don’t worry if you receive a reminder from NHS England before we have contacted you – this is a national message and does not mean you have been missed. Your vaccination needs are held locally within the Somerset system, and you will be contacted before 31 January 2026 to arrange your vaccination. If you would like us to confirm that you are coded as housebound on our system, our staff can check this for you. Thank you for your patience.
