NHS Scotland have advised all GP Practices and Hospitals to temporarily suspend all routine clinical work.
WE ARE STILL HERE TO DISCUSS AND ASSESS ANY WORRYING SYMPTOMS OR CONCERNS YOU HAVE AT THIS TIME AND IT IS IMPORTANT YOU ARRANGE A REVIEW IF SOMETHING IS WORRYING YOU
We have adopted a 'phone first' approach which means that ALL patients will be spoken to by a member of the medical team before being offered a further review.
This means your problem may be dealt with by phone, video or in person at the practice.
Should our healthcare team feel your problem would be best reviewed by video call then we will give you a set appointment to use this link via Google Chrome/Safari
