Welcome to Cropredy Surgery

Prescription Collection

We now require 3 working days notice between ordering and collecting medication (excluding weekends and Bank Holidays).

This allows us time to order medicines that we do not stock and prepare prescriptions for signing by the doctors before dispensing.

Thank you for your continued support and understanding.

Appointments

In order for us to keep the surgery open and ensure that we are doing our utmost to keep you and ourselves safe, there will be times when appointments have to be re-arranged at short notice and you may not see the clinician you were originally booked in to see.

We appreciate your continued support and understanding during these difficult times.

Face Masks

Can we please ask everyone who attends the surgery to continue to wear a face mask to ensure our patients and staff stay safe.

Urine Samples (16/11/2021)

In order to keep our patients (and staff) safe and to keep within national guidelines, we can no longer accept urine samples without an accompanying appointment. Therefore please don’t drop off a urine sample without having made an appointment to see one of our GPs or nurses first.

Urine samples also need to be in the correct container which reception will be happy to give you. This way we know the bottle is clinically clean and has a good screw top which won’t leak!

Flu Clinic Update (2/11/2021)

Just to clarify where we are with our flu vaccines as we appreciate that it's a little complicated at the moment. Flu deliveries continue to be restricted and this is completely beyond our control.

OVER 65's: Are being being contacted to be booked in for the clinics we currently have scheduled and where possible we are trying to book these in age order.

UNDER 65's At Risk: These are people with certain medical conditions that are entitled to a flu vaccine each year. We are currently contacting these patients to book them in for the clinics we currently have scheduled.

OVER 50's Not At Risk: These will be contacted once we have confirmation of when we will receive the vaccines for this age group.

CHILDREN: 2 to 3 years of age can be booked in.

SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN: These are being vaccinated at the school they attend, unless there is a medical reason that means they must be vaccinated at the surgery.

We appreciate that things are difficult at the moment, but this is the strict order in which we have to prioritise our vaccines.

Flu Vaccines (Updated 19/10/21)

We are aware that NHS England have sent a text message reminding people to book their flu vaccines.

Please note that you do not need to phone us as we will phone you once we have confirmation of clinic dates.

Thank you for your understanding as we have no influence or control as to when NHS England send these texts or letters

Update (6.9.21) Flu Jab Delay

You may have read in the newspapers over the weekend, Seqirus, one of the UK’s largest suppliers of seasonal flu vaccines, has said the delay of up to two weeks is due to a shortage of HGV drivers.

At Cropredy Surgery we are continuing to plan our Flu Clinics for October but cannot confirm specific dates until nearer the time.

The clinics are likely to be held on a Saturday and we will be contacting patients directly, closer to the dates to let you know when you will receive your Flu Vaccine.

Please do not contact the Reception Team regarding the Flu Vaccine Clinics so that we can keep the phone lines clear for all other queries.

Once registered, patients and healthcare professionals work together to ensure the most appropriate care is provided. This partnership philosophy extends even further and our active patient group exists to make sure that patient needs and the practice offering are always heading in the same direction.
