Dear Patient

Like our colleagues at GP practices across West Hampshire, the GPs and nursing staff at this practice are very keen to keep our knowledge and skills up to date so that we can provide you and your family with the best possible care.

So, twice a year, we get together with colleagues from other local GP practices for an afternoon to refresh our knowledge and discuss local health care issues. This means that, on these dates, no GPs or nurses will be available to see patients and so this surgery will be closed.

This surgery will be closed on Thursday 4th June from 1.00pm onwards while the clinical and nursing staff attend one of these twice-yearly meetings. The surgery will re-open as usual the following morning.

Any regular clinics usually held on these afternoons will be re-arranged. You will be able to telephone the surgery while it's closed to arrange an appointment and all our online services will continue to work as usual.

Anyone who needs advice about a health problem that cannot wait until the surgery is open again should telephone 111. In an emergency, please call 999.
