What to do if you are isolating at home

Please be aware we no longer have Open Surgery. Please submit an econsultation using the facility on our home page if you require medical advice. If you feel your request is of an urgent nature please telephone the surgery and we will accommodate you on our triage list for that day.

The surgery is currently receiving a lot of requests for travel cancellation forms from people who want to cancel their trips due to the risk of contracting coronavirus.

Please Click Here for advice from the Foreign Office regarding travelling to specific areas of the world. Depending on your specific travel insurance policy, most insurance companies will cover cancelled trips to countries to which the Foreign Office advise not to travel. No certificate from your GP is required.

In addition, please be advised that the surgery is unable to provide letters or certificates to travel insurance companies supporting requests for refunds by patients who, without any significant medical illness, cancel their travel plans.
