NEW Walk-in and Wait Surgery

                       Practice Appointments

The Practice will be piloting a walk in and wait surgery that will take place on Monday & Friday mornings only between 8.30am and 10.30am.

From Monday the 1st July you will be able to arrive at the practice anytime between 8.30am and 10.30am and be seen that morning by one of the GP’s, Nurse Practitioner or Pharmacist, depending on your need.

We will not be able to accommodate requests to see a particular clinician at the walk in and wait surgery but you will still be able to pre-book an appointment at any other time during the week with the clinician of your choice.

The walk in and wait surgery will be fully evaluated at the end of September by the Practice and Patient Participation Group and we will communicate the results, via email, the practice website and in the surgery.

 

If the practice does not currently have your email address or you have a new email address please notify reception so that we can update your details.

2019 Flu Season Has Arrived!

We offer Flu vaccinations every year from September, to help protect those at risk of flu and its complications.

People considered to be at risk are:

  • anyone aged 65 and over
  • pregnant women
  • children and adults with an underlying health condition (such as long-term heart or respiratory disease)
  • children and adults with weakened immune systems

Anyone in these risk groups is more likely to develop potentially serious complications of flu, such as pneumonia (a lung infection), so it’s recommended that they have a flu vaccine every year to help protect them.

PPG Open Evening – Tuesday 17th September 2019

The HHGP PPG is holding an awareness event on Mind and Body on:

Tuesday 17th Septemeber at 6:30pm 

All practice patients are welcome!

Awareness weeks are run by the PPG and aim to encourage patients to consider their health and well-being outside of GP or hospital visits, and usually take various themes.  Our upcoming awareness week, Mind and Body, links physical and mental health, and will involve short presentations from PPG steering group members with some information to take away.

We’d like to see you there, so drop by at 6:30pm (we aim to start no later than 6:45pm) on 17th September for refreshments and friendly discussions with the Group.
