Staffing shortage at Ladywell East

The Practice is currently experiencing a staffing crisis which is likely to last until 1 November. 

In order to ensure we are providing the safest service to our patients, we will be operating an emergency only service from 4.30pm – 6.00pm each day until 4 November.   We will review the situation at this time and may need to extend this.

When calling the practice, particularly during these times, please consider the urgency of your problem and alternative medical support that you can access.  The Pharmacy First service can provide support for a wide range of ailments.   You can find more information on this website or on the NHS Inform website www.nhsinform.scot   

We apologise that we are not able to provide our usual service and that you may have a longer wait for your call to be answered or administrative requests to be completed.  We are working as hard as we can but with either new staff or staff who do not usually work in reception within the Practice.
