Advice for patients
We are pleased to announce that our practice has re-opened.
All patients will be contacted in turn over the coming weeks, starting with those who have been having problems during the lockdown.
Due to the new ways that the practice will be running, we cannot see the same numbers of patients each day that we used to. We ask that our patients bear with us as we try to get everybody seen.
Please do not ring the practice for your appointment unless...
…you have a specific problem such as a brace breakage (see below on how to deal with brace problems). We will telephone all patients in turn as quickly as we can.
Intermediate procedures
We would like to thank all of our patients for bearing with us while we adjust to the new situation and we look forward to seeing you in the coming months. In the meantime, please could patients observe the advice below.
Please do not attend the practice premises without an appointment
