Pneumococcal vaccine

Supplies of this vaccine are due to be received and patients over 80 years of age who have not had this vaccination before are entitled to have a dose.

We hope to run a clinic mid February - please contact the surgery for an appointment.

Asthma review

All patients who need to see a doctor for further inhalers, or who are seeing the asthma nurse, are asked to bring their inhalers and inhaling devices with them. A quick check to ensure correct use will be undertaken.

Christmas presents

The doctors and staff would like to thank all patients who very kindly brought in gifts. Your generosity was much appreciated. We are trying to thank you all personally by letter but if we have inadvertently lost your gift tag and missed you out - please accept this as our way of saying thank you.

Dispensary services

Patients are reminded that they may collect prescriptions dispensed by the surgery from the Post Offices in Cheriton and Preston Candover. Requests for further repeats may also be left at the Post Offices. If a fee is due please ensure this is enclosed with the request.

Our delivery service is also in operation and we can arrange for medications to be delivered to your home providing there is someone to accept them. Deliveries are made in the early part of the afternoon. For further details call the surgery.

Preston Candover - February

Clinics will run every Monday and Thursday, except Thursday 19th February. Patients are reminded that they should telephone the surgery on the usual number before attending clinics.
