RAT Testing:

We are able to provide supervised RAT tests for people with symptoms, and to asymptomatic household close contacts of a case for days 3 and 7. We are not able to let you take the test home to do, this must be done onsite. We are not allowed to sell you the test either. Testing is FREE. Bookings required and subject to availability.

 

After you have had your RAT test taken you may then leave, we will contact you with your result on the same day. 

​

Please note when calculating the number of days, day 0 is the day your household case first started having symptoms, or if your household case did not have symptoms then day 0 is the day their positive test was taken. 

​

If you are not a household contact but you found out you are a close contact, you are not legally required to self isolate anymore at phase 3 however please consider taking extra precautions as if you may have Covid, such as staying away from crowds and not visiting elderly relatives etc. 

​

 

We are open at all alert levels/traffic light framework. Online appointment bookings via H365 remain disabled. All bookings must be made via phoning our clinic number on 3608008. Repeat prescriptions can be ordered via H365 or by phoning.

​

Other than in person consultations, we continue to offer phone and video consultations which can be just as useful as in person for many medical conditions.
