Covid-19 and General Information
​
Following the advice of our professional body, I am continuing to see patients remotely, via video-consultation, or in person.
Patients who are seen face to face are required to wear face masks and to use hand sanitiser on arrival and departure. Practice staff also wear face masks.
Patients are asked to remain in their vehicles if possible, to avoid sitting in the waiting area ahead of their appointment time. We are encouraging patients, where possible, to attend alone to minimise social contact, however please note we are happy for patients to be accompanied if preferred. Please also note that under 16 year olds are required to be accompanied by a guardian or parent.
We would also ask patients not to attend if they have any cold/flu or other viral symptoms. ​
