Folly Lane Medical Centre

• General practice is working hard to support the covid-19 vaccination programme, we are still here for you but the way you access care may be different
• Face-to-face appointments are available to all patients where there is a clinical need. You will be asked to first discuss your conditions over the phone or online with a member of the healthcare team to assess what would be most appropriate for you and which practice member would best provide it. 
• Most common conditions can be assessed and diagnosed by your doctor by telephone or video consultation. They are experienced and skilled in doing this. Using technology like this will help to protect you, your family and loved ones - and GP practice staff from the potential risk of the virus.
• General practice services are extremely busy and are working hard to treat as many patients as possible.
