Your Visit During the Pandemic

Due to the high levels of Omicron Variant circulating in the community, we are now only seeing emergency patients, antenatal patients and children for vaccination in person. Most other conditions will be managed by phone consultation where possible. These changes are to protect both patients and staff. Please bear with us during this time. Please do not attend if you are feeling unwell, unless you have been advised to do so by the doctor. Your doctor/nurse will be wearing full personal protection equipment when they see you.

If you have respiratory symptoms and require assessment in person, your appointment will be scheduled for the end of the morning or afternoon, this is to facilitate room cleaning and to minimise infection to others. For this reason we also would request any patients with respiratory symptoms to wait in their car rather than in the waiting room prior to their appointment.
