Assignment to an accountable GP
All patients have a right to express a preferance of a practitioner and the means of expressing such a preference. We will always try and book patients in with the preference Practitioner at times this will not be possible due to demand but will inform if this is the case.
Staying warm
Cold temperatures can weaken the immune system, making us more susceptible to infections like the flu and colds. Staying warm supports the body’s ability to fight off illnesses.
