Appointments

There are many ways to seek advice from a Healthcare Professional – please select the most appropriate option:

If you are immunocompromised or at high risk, please wear a face covering and let the member of staff attending to you know so that they can also wear a mask to protect you.

If you think you have an infectious illness, please consider wearing a mask/covering to protect other patients and our staff.
