Winter Illness Advice

Respiratory or Contagious illness

It is important that we keep patients with symptoms of respiratory or potentially contagious illness separate from those who don't. This is to minimise the risk of community transmission of serious contagious illness. You will still be seen by a Doctor if you have these symptoms but you may have a telephone consult first, and/or we may bring you in through a different entrance at the Medical Centre.

Thank you for your understanding in our attempts to keep you, your family and our staff safe.
