COVID-19 VACCINE UPDATE - 10/03/21

COVID-19 VACCINE - Please do not call the surgery if you have a general enquiry regarding the COVID-19 vaccine. The surgery has now completed the first dose for our 75+ and shielding patients and second doses will be scheduled between 8-12 weeks after the first dose.

Patients below the age of 75 will be appointed by the healthboard based on age and underlying health conditions. If you have any queries regarding your vaccine/when your group will be called then please look on the NHS Inform Website or use the national helpline 0800 030 8013 which is open from 8am to 8pm, seven days a week.

Please avoid calling with any queries about the vaccine or when you will be vaccinated as we are unable to give you any more information at this stage and we need to try to keep the phone lines open for people who are unwell and in need of medical care.

We would like to thank you for your understanding over the last few months as the GP’s and staff struggle to deal with an overwhelming amount of health and medication queries. Please use www.nhsinform.scot as much as possible and visit our Covid Information page for all Covid advice. 

Thank You!
