Due to the current and ongoing changes with COVID-19 we are bringing in extra measures at our practice to keep our patients and staff safe during this time.

Our waiting rooms at Blackbrook Surgery and Victoria Gate Surgery will now be closed.

Patients will be asked to wait in their cars or outside the surgery 5 minutes before their appointment time.

Please ensure that you are wearing a face mask or face covering at all times whilst in the building.

Thank you for your ongoing patience during this time.

W/C 15th June
Please could all patients visiting the surgery wear a face covering (mask/scarf etc) to help protect vulnerable patients and stop the spread of Coronavirus.

Did you know you can now consult with our GP Practice online? You can input
your symptoms online and will receive a response – usually that day, if a request is received within the Online Consultation daily request times. You will either be given advice, directed to other sources of support such as the pharmacy, receive a telephone consultation or if necessary booked in for an appointment. You will also have access to reliable and trustworthy self-help generic information 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can also use the service to contact us about test results, sick notes, referral letters and
medical reports. It’s easy to get started, just try it and you might save yourself time and a journey. Click on this link to try the service.
