POWER RETURN
Power has returned to the surgery!
Although we remain without broadband, we have secured a wifi connection via a dongle, so our internet and phone lines are finally operational within the surgery.
Therefore, we are delighted to announce the surgery will reopen on Tuesday morning at 9am.
We would like to thank all of our patients for their understanding and patience during these past few days. We would also like to thank all those who offered their support to us in this difficult time. A very special thank you to Dr Máire McGarry (a native of Dunmore) and her team in Tuam Family Practice who supported us when we temporarily moved to Tuam Primary Care Centre.
We realise that large numbers of our patients remain without power, broadband and phone signal and we will endeavour to support you in any way possible until its return.
Thank you, from all the team at Dunmore Medical Practice.

PRACTICE CLOSURE:
Unfortunately, the power has gone once again and we are in darkness and so must remain closed.
Power has returned to the practice as of this evening so we have light and heat. Our broadband is currently down but we are hoping that will return shortly.
So, our doors will reopen in the morning at 9am!
Thank you for all your support over the last difficult number of days 🙏
