Important Info
FLU VACCINES + COVID BOOSTERS
Flu vaccine and COVID booster clinics can now be booked from the week of 25th September. Please contact the surgery to book in.
Expansion of Doctor Visit Cards by Income, and up to age 7:
If you are already a patient, please apply for your DVC card on-line and select Dr Claire McGovern from the list. Dr Aisling and Dr Brian's panels are too full. You can still attend the doctor of your choice, regardless of the name on your card.
FEE INCREASES
Due to increasing costs we have had to increase some of our fees for the first time in over 10 years. To try and limit the impact on the majority of patients, we have not increased our standard consultation fee. New fees will commence from 1st June. (See Fee page for further details).
CONSULTATIONS
We are extremely busy but we want to see you. If you are concerned about your symptoms or need a review, please book the next available appointment with the GP. Please only ask for a same day appointment if you have urgent symptoms that cannot wait.

New Patients: we currently have no capacity to take on new patients. We are prioritising existing patients and those with no local GP. Applicants will be placed on a waiting list and taken on as space allows. We cannot take on patients who already have a GP in the area
Repeat Prescriptions
There is a 48 hour turnaround for repeat prescriptions, letters etc. More complicated forms will take longer. An emergency 7 day supply of medication can usually be obtained from the pharmacy if needed.
