Alert: APPOINTMENT SYSTEM

We are currently experiencing staffing issues, which is causing a shortage in appointments. The Health Board are supporting us to review our appointment system to try and improve access for patients. During this process, there may be times when pre-bookable appointments are not available, but we hope that this will be very short term.

We appreciate your patience during this challenging time.

Non-urgent advice: Important Notice

From 5th September 2024 we are no longer able to take on the prescribing of ADHD medication from a private provider.

Non-urgent advice: Please Note

We are a training practice, which means that your appointment may be with a qualified doctor undergoing further training to become a GP (a GP specialist trainee). If you would prefer not to have an appointment with them, please inform reception at time of booking.

It is becoming more common for patients to travel abroad for some medical procedures. If you choose to do this, please ensure that you have arranged aftercare as your GP is not obliged to offer routine follow up care for any treatment provided abroad.
