Covid Vaccination
We run both spring and autumn vaccination campaigns every year, and we will annolunce the start of the vaccination campaign on our website. We will invite all eligible patients to book although that can take time. So...
If you feel you are eligible, please contact us as early in the season as possible so that we can get you booked in. Early vaccination will keep you protected. Please send us an online contact using AccuRx or come down to the surgery to ask for an appointment.
Flu & Pneumococcal Vaccinations
For registered patients over 65 years of age and those in at risk categories, the practice offers flu vaccinations. Vaccinations will take place in Autumn each year and the Medical Centre will publicise the campaign.
