Donation of hand sanitiser.

A big thank you to the North Uist distillery who have donated several bottles of hand sanitiser to the practice in light of the current coronavirus situation.

Great way to re purpose their alcohol stocks during this difficult time – much appreciated (and smells great)!

Disruption caused by Covid 19

March 5th, 2020 by Dr Wheeler. No Comments »

You will have seen a lot in the news about the Covid 19 virus which is starting to spread.

There have been no local cases yet – but we are keen to minimise spread so are starting to take precautions ahead of time.

If you are booking an appointment with a doctor or nurse in the next few weeks you will need to do so over the phone – and will be asked a couple of screening questions to make sure that we deal with you in the safest way possible.

During this time online appointment booking will need to be suspended – but this will be reintroduced as soon as the situation has settled.

In the meantime – please do NOT attend the surgery if you have any respiratory symptoms or fever, and please tell us if you have travelled abroad in the previous 2 weeks when booking your appointment.
