Welcome to Queen Square Medical Practice

COVID VACCINE UPDATE

Due to advice from the UK chief medical officer we unfortunately have to cancel all 2nd doses of Pfizer vaccine. This is for dates 5th / 6th / 7th /8th / 9th / 10th and 20th January. All patients will be contacted by phone to confirm.

This is because of new advice from the UK Chief Medical Officers. The new medical advice is that the second dose of the vaccine remains effective when given up to 12 weeks after the first dose, and should be given towards the end of this 12 week period.

Two doses of the vaccine are still needed to get the best protection from the virus, but significant protection is still provided at twenty two days after the first dose. New guidance will therefore help ensure that as many people as possible benefit from the first dose of the vaccine as soon as possible.

We are truly sorry for the upset and worry this will cause everyone but we hope you all understand and can support us.

All appointments will be dealt with over the telephone in the first instance. Online booking is currently unavailable. Please call the surgery if you require an appointment.

In response to government guidance we are asking ALL patients visiting our premises to wear a face covering when they are in the building.

The exceptions to this rule are young children and adults with breathing problems.
