When We Are Away

Our clinic will close from time to time, which we can understand is an inconvenience for you. When we are away, we make sure all investigations results are checked and any urgent results dealt with accordingly. 

Sometimes there will be telephone appointments available that can be booked online via our website. Costs may apply.
