We have seen a sharp rise in COVID cases within patients registered at the group practice in the past week and unfortunately this includes a number of our staff and family members.

As a result we have a number of staff isolating, so we are making changes to our way of working in the short term which may result in non-urgent appointments being postponed and high-risk procedures being cancelled for the moment.

We will contact patients that are affected by this, so if you have not been contacted, please assume your appointment is still going to take place.

We want to ensure that we can deal with urgent health care needs for our practice population so would ask that you contact us only with urgent matters.

We will update you again when the situation starts to settle.

You can refer to https://www.nhs.uk/ for advice on managing routine health care matters.

Best wishes, The Partners
