The Saltaire & Windhill Medical Partnership remains open and we continue to be here to help you.
Please note the following:
- You can book GP or ANP appointments as telephone appointments OR face-to-face depending on your preference. We understand that many will still prefer to discuss their issues over the telephone in the first instance, but you may be asked to attend if the issue cannot be resolved over the telephone.
- Our nursing team are conducting chronic disease reviews by telephone where possible. When this is not possible or for certain tests a face to face appointment will be arranged.
- To help protect vulnerable patients and keep our staff safe please do not attend the surgery unless you have a pre-booked appointment.
- Please be aware that demand for all appointments remains high and we are still experiencing a high level of sickness absence due to the Covid pandemic – if possible visit our Virtual Surgery to get help without ringing the practice. You can send eConsults, order medication with SystmOnline and book PushDr consultations
- Please wear a face covering and use the provided hand sanitiser when attending a pre-booked appointment.
- Please do not attend pre-booked appointments if you develop COVID symptoms, are awaiting a COVID test result or are required to self-isolate by NHS Test and Trace, please cancel and rebook your appointment.
- Our branch sites (Cottingley and Cliffe Aveue Surgeries) are open in the mornings for pre-booked appointments only. .
- Visit the NHS website for advice on self-managing common minor conditions which don’t require you to speak to a clinician.
Thank you for your continued understanding and support during the pandemic,
