If you are eligible and have not yet been vaccinated, please speak to Reception to book an appointment. It is best to get vaccinated before flu starts circulating.
Urgent Care Service
We have changed the name of the Same Day Service to Urgent Care Service to emphasise its key aim which is to provide timely access and support to all those who have an urgent health care need. This service is for the whole of Westongrove and is based at Wendover Health Centre. We warmly welcome our new specialist lead nurse Mariam who has joined the urgent care team. If you have an urgent care problem, first of all please see if you can get the help you need from online sources such as NHS Choices, or from local pharmacies. If you need to speak to a nurse or doctor please call the Health Centre and give details of your problems to one of the Reception team, who will arrange a call back. A face-to-face appointment can then be arranged if necessary.
We wish all readers a Happy Christmas and a Healthy New Year! This space paid for by Wendover Health Centre.
