Thank you G!

Today we had to say goodbye to G, our lovely Clinical Pharmacist, who joined us as a PCN Team Member at the very beginning of the Covid vaccination programme. Some of you may recognise him as the one who arrived on a moped in purple scrubs! Happy to help anyone with anything, G was a fantastic member of the practice family and will be sorely missed (along with his paella). Bereft as we are; we wish him the best of luck with his future career and know lots of our patients who were lucky enough to work with him will wish him the same. Thank you so much G! And hopefully you’ll be back to visit us (read: feed us) soon. Xx

Requests to ‘Chase’ Hospital Appointments

From the Derby & Derbyshire LMC:

‘GPs are currently struggling with unprecedented workload pressures; as is the whole of the NHS.

We are aware that referrals, and follow-up appointments, are frequently delayed because of the pressure within the NHS. We are, however, not given specific reasons for this, nor told about delays to outpatient appointments.

As a consequence, we are unable to comply with requests to chase appointments. We would recommend you contact the relevant department at the hospital, or the hospital’s Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS).

Should there be a change/worsening in your condition please make an appointment for review. We will only be able to contact the hospital try and speed up an appointment if there is a medical urgency for this.’

Thank you for your understanding!
