In most circumstances it is best to see a doctor who already knows you or your current problems. Research shows that "continuity of care" improves both health outcomes and the experience of patients. That may mean waiting a little longer for an appointment, but it will be better for your health and save you time in the long run.
You may notice changes to how blood tests requested by hospitals and handled.
Due to funding issues across the healthcare system, local GP surgeries are no longer routinely performing blood tests requested by hospitals. Instead, if a hospital clinician requests a blood test, we are advising patients to have this done directly at the hospital.
This change helps ensure that hospitals can utilise the specific funding allocated to them
for these services, and that the result of your test is automatically sent to the clinician best suited to interpreting them. It also means that GP surgeries can ensure that the tests that they need
can be done in a safe and timely manner.
We appreciate your understanding as we work to provide the best care possible within
current healthcare funding structures.
If you are suffering from a cough, cold or sore throat, please wear a facemask during your visit to see us. Remember that other patients may be more vulnerable to infections, and wearing a mask will help to protect them.
If you have forgotten to bring one, we can supply one for you: please ask at our Reception desk.
