Noticeboard

The surgery email address is: somccg.enquiries.lyngfordpark@nhs.net
We are asking ALL patients to please wear a face covering when attending the surgery for an appointment. This can be a mask, or a scarf/shawl that covers your nose and mouth. Thank you.
To reduce your chances of catching COVID-19 and reduce pressure on your local GP practice during this busy time, appointments will be carried out over the phone, through video consultations or online via our website Engage Consult, unless there is a clinical need for you to come into the practice. This will help minimise the risk while continuing to ensure people get the care and advice they need.
Please note: Following guidelines from NHS England our online appointment booking system has been temporarily disabled.

Blood test results
X-rays and ultrasounds
Cervical screening

Your GP or nurse will usually have advised you on how long to expect before we receive your result. Please only phone us on or after this time period, as it is unlikely we will receive any results before the specified time. We also ask that you phone after 2pm on any day for test results.
