Appointments

We are in the process of changing our appointments system to an online system. This will go live on 11 July.

As a stepping stone to the new system we have had to stop booking appointments ahead but this is a temporary arrangement. 

A new icon will appear on this website soon to allow you to register for our new online appointments service called AskMyGp. This should allow you access to a GP online throughout the working day. If you register for this service you will no longer have to wait in a telephone queue!

Watch this space...... and thank you for bearing with us through this changeover period

Telephone Advice
Your doctor will be happy to give you advice on the telephone when he/she is not consulting. The receptionist will ask you to leave a message and the doctor will return your call when time permits.

PRACTICE NEWS

COVID VACCINATIONS

We are pleased to say we are helping to vaccinate patients with the new COVID vaccination. We are a Wave 1 site with the other practices in Yeovil and surrounding villages. We will be calling you when it is your turn to get a vaccination but please note this is dependant on supplies and will be a structured process with vaccines being released by the government. Please await a phone call or letter for an invite. All vaccinations will be carried out at central sites and not currently at any surgery sites.

We understand that people are anxious to be invited for their COVID-19 vaccinations. We are working very hard to invite people in the priority groups identified by the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation as quickly as we can. Please help us by not contacting us to ask about your appointment. We will contact you when it's your turn.

If you have received a letter from the NHS Covid-19 Vaccination Booking Service inviting you to book an appointment at a vaccination centre, you can book as advised in the letter or wait to be invited by the surgery.

Please do not contact or visit us to ask when we will contact you. We are working as quickly as we can to get to everyone in the priority groups.

For information on the vaccination please go to :

Guide for older adults: COVID-19 vaccination: guide for older adults - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

What to expect after vaccination: COVID-19 vaccination: what to expect after vaccination - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

Women of childbearing age, those who are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding should read the detailed information on www.nhs.uk/covidvaccination.

In order to deliver this important vaccination programme the government has allowed us to offer limited services on the days we are vaccinating . Please note we will therefore be only open to urgent requests on Thursday 17 and Friday 18 December. Many thanks for your help with this. 

With the current Covid restrictions and everyone's safety in mind, could we ask that you only attend the surgery if you have an agreed appointment.

We have also had to make changes to our prescriptions ordering service please check out our prescriptions tab for details. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
