THE PATIENT JOURNEY
​COVID - 19

We are looking forward to seeing you for your appointment.
 
The Practice is now open, currently we are operating a ‘closed door’ policy. 

Nobody can enter the building without an appointment arranged by telephone first.
 
The purpose of these instructions is to explain what to expect when you come for your appointment. 
 
You will have been contacted by one of the team to complete a Pre-Appointment Questionnaire by telephone before your appointment. If the answers to the questionnaire change at any time before your appointment contact the Practice immediately.
 
The questions will be asked again when you arrive for your appointment at which point you will be asked to sign to confirm your answers and consent to receiving treatment during the Covid-19 pandemic.
