Wednesday 13th November
Today is staff training for our Practice this afternoon. This does mean we have limited appointments this morning. If you are in need of care this afternoon, please call 111 who will direct your call approopriately.
Industrial Action -Patient Information
This is to reassure you that Priory Surgery has all our patients at the heart of everything we do and we will not choose to do anything that will lessen the care we offer to you.
On 1st August, GP’s voted to take industrial action for the first time in 60 years.
We do support the industrial action, but we will only take action where it applies pressure elsewhere.
General Practice is now very poorly funded and this directly impacts on the service we can give you. We do not support the imposition of the GP contract and support those who are trying to negotiate a better contract. This matters because the contract outlines what services we offer to you, our patients, and how these are delivered.
We support the industrial action as we need to improve the service that all GP Practices are able to deliver, to all our patients, nationwide.
Dr Nice
Dr Nice has now retired from the Practice. Dr Nice has provided a fantastic service and has committed many years of her working life to the NHS and to Priory Surgery for which we are all extremely grateful.
The Practice would like to publicly thank Dr Nice for the care she has given so many of our patients and their families and for the considered and thoughtful wisdom and expertise in helping us to provide a service for all our patients.
We wish Dr Nice all the very best for her well earned retirement.
