Our services during Covid-19

We would like our patients to know that we remain open but with a “closed door” policy.  This means the majority of consultations with the GP will not be done face to face, but by phone or video consultation.

If you or your family member have a medical issue covid or non covid related please contact us on 01 8203303. The details will be taken by one of our secretaries, followed by a telephone from the GP.  Where applicable there will be a fee for this service.

As per guidelines the Maternity & Infant Care Scheme and Primary Immunisation services (Child Vaccines) remain a priority and will take place in the surgery, adhering to HSE infection control guidelines at all times.

To make your appointment please call us on 01 8203303 and we will go through the necessary steps.

Of note, there will no evening surgeries during this time due to GP demand throughout the day On a final note, can we say thank you to all our patients for the kind words, wishes, gifts and support you have all shown us through these very difficult times
