🚨Important Patient Notice🚨

Due to staff sickness, we have very limited appointments available today, and this is also likely to affect the rest of the week.

If you feel you need to be seen urgently, please attend the Walk-in Centre (WIC) or Accident & Emergency (A&E).

Please also remember that your local pharmacy can assess and prescribe treatment for many minor ailments.

Our team is working hard to rearrange appointments and make additional appointments available wherever possible. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.

We will not tolerate any abuse towards our staff, in any form. Our team is doing everything they can to support patients under challenging circumstances.

Thank you for your understanding, and we apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Kind regards,

🌟 FRIDAY WEEKEND HEALTH ADVICE 🌟

🤧 Feeling unwell this weekend?

Remember, antibiotics don’t treat viral infections such as colds and flu.

💊 Antibiotics only work against certain bacterial infections and taking them when they aren’t needed won’t help you recover.

🫖 For most viral illnesses, rest, plenty of fluids and simple self-care can help you feel better.

🚨 If you become seriously unwell or your symptoms are getting worse, seek appropriate medical advice.

💙 Help us keep antibiotics working when they’re needed most.

Have a safe and healthy weekend from everyone at Poplar House Surgery! 🌿
