On Wednesday 9th August from 9am to 10:30am Healthy Lifestyles will be available to talk to from our Messingham Surgery. 

They will be there under the new Swap to Stop initiative set out by the government. 

There will be free vapes for smokers to try, and any questions can be answered.

An exciting new opportunity has arisen for Cambridge Avenue!

When a Total Triage form is completed by the patient, the system will pick up key words to ensure the patient is signposted to the correct service for the illness they present with.

You may be signposted to different services:

• Pharmacy First Service
• Dentist
• Opticians
• Sexual Health Clinic
• Chiropodist

Please ensure you follow the directions on the signposting page before requesting a GP appointment at the surgery.

Please be aware following the new guidelines released by our ICB - Humber and North Yorkshire GP Surgeries are unable to issue Mounjaro as a weight loss injection. 

Please do not contact the surgery to request Mounjaro injections, we can currently only refer to a weight loss programme - which does NOT include a weight loss injection.

We are now using Total Triage to book our appointments, our form is now open from 7am to 4pm.

Benefits of using our online Total Triage Form:

• Skip the queues! 
• Don't have to get up at 8am to ring for an appointment
• Put as much information down as possible to ensure correct triaging
• Easy to use

Negatives of using our online Total Triage Form:

• There simply is none!

You will receieve a response from our Triage Nurse within a maximum of 72 hours, however the usual turn around time is much less than this.

Please note if you request a specific clinician there may be a longer wait, our receptionists will let you know of this and offer another clinician if you are unable to wait.

If you are experiencing chest pain, breathing difficulties or vomiting blood please contact 999 or visit your local A&E.

You may be eligible for a FREE NHS Health Check, if you are aged between 40 and 74 please contact the surgery to see if you are eligible. Please note if you have a long term condition you will not be eligible for an NHS Health Check. 

The Health Check will include a free blood test, checking your height and weight and also asking questions about your lifestyle.

You may be eligible for an RSV vaccination, please contact the surgery or follow the link below to see if you are eligible.
