Welcome to Carrington House Surgery

Due to the Coronavirus we are asking patients to call the Surgery to book appointments (01494 523211). We will NOT be booking appointments at the reception desk until further notice. Thank you for your understanding

What is the advice to patients and the public who have travelled abroad recently or have been in contact with someone confirmed as having Coronavirus?

Stay indoors and avoid contact with other people if you've travelled to the UK from the following places in the last 14 days, even if you do not have symptoms:

• Iran
• Hubei province in China
• lockdown areas in northern Italy
• special care zones in South Korea

Stay indoors and avoid contact with other people if you've travelled to the UK from the following places in the last 14 days and have a cough, high temperature or shortness of breath, even if your symptoms are mild:

• mainland China outside of Hubei province
• Italy outside of the lockdown areas
• South Korea outside of the special care zones
• Cambodia
• Hong Kong
• Japan
• Laos
• Macau
• Malaysia
• Myanmar

Lockdown areas in northern Italy:

Lombardy region (which includes the cities of Milan, Bergamo, Como) and the provinces of Modena, Parma, Piacenza, Reggio Emilia and Rimini (all in Emilia Romagna); Pesaro e Urbino (in Marche); Alessandria, Asti, Novara, Verbano-Cusio-Ossola and Vercelli (all in Piemonte); Padova. Treviso and Venice (in Veneto).

Anyone who meets the above criteria is advised not to go to a GP surgery, community

pharmacy or hospital. Instead they should call NHS 111, stay indoors and avoid close

contact with other people.

Information for the public is available at nhs.uk

With patients needs at the heart of everything we do, our website has been designed to make it easy for you to gain instant access to the information you need. As well as specific practice details such as opening hours and how to register, we hope you will find a wealth of useful pages covering a wide range of health issues along with links to other relevant medical organisations.

Named Allocated GP

NHS England require each registered patient to have a named allocated GP. Patients can ask at any time who their named allocated GP is. Patients have the option to request a specific named GP (requests will be considered). However, we do NOT operate a 'personal list' operation at Carrington House, this means patients can choose to see whichever doctor they prefer at the surgery for their care.
