Throughout the pandemic we have strived to make the surgery as safe as possible for all our patients and staff. We will continue to do so going forward.
From the 19th July patients will need to still wear a mask, socially distance and use hand sanitiser in the surgery and staff will continue to wear PPE. We do understand that it can be frustrating but we know that when people come to us they are sick and vulnerable so we feel it would be wrong to not take the precautions that we can to protect them.
In terms of opening up, as many of you know, we have never been closed and in fact have consulted with much higher numbers of patients than we did pre-covid (face to face, by phone and by video), not counting the thousands of vaccinations we have administered.
To reduce risks further we would ask that you are only accompanied for your appointment if it is absolutely necessary.
Cobbs Garden Surgery has worked really hard to minimise the impact of Covid and we hope you can appreciate that we need to keep the surgery safe for our patients and our staff.
