Welcome to Nettlebed Surgery

Book your Covid / Flu vaccinations now

The Autumn Covid vaccination programme is due to start in October.  Clinics for the Covid / Flu vaccinations have been set up at Nettlebed Surgery and eligible patients can book their appointment now.

Patients eligible to receive the Autumn Covid vaccination at Nettlebed Surgery are:

• • Aged 65 and over
  • Aged 18 – 64 in clinically ‘at risk’ groups (‘at risk’ patients aged 6 – 17years are eligible but will need to book online to receive their vaccination elsewhere)
  • Health care workers
  • Care workers in homes for older adults

The Surgery will be closed on the afternoon of Tuesday 12 November for Essential Staff Training

Along with other surgeries in Bucks, Oxon and Berks the surgery will be closed from 13:00 – 18:30 on Thursday 26 September for essential staff training.  If you need urgent medical advice during that time please contact NHS 111 online or by phone.  Please call 999 if you have an emergency. 

Information regarding privately funded bariatric (weight loss) surgery has been posted in Help and Support Other Organisations.

GP Action

You will have heard the results of the recent GP ballot regarding potential action. We should emphasise that this is not about strike action.  Nine of the 10 possible ‘actions’ have no impact on patient care.  To be clear, neither is this about GP pay, it is about the sum paid to GP practices in order to provide GP services e.g. to provide the premises, pay the staff and meet our obligations under the GMS contract etc. 

The GPs at Nettlebed have decided that they will not enforce the recommended safe limit of 25 Appointments per day per GP at this time.  Although Nettlebed Surgery will not be enforcing this as part of the current GP action, we fully support the right of our colleagues in other practices to adhere to the guidance. Action is being taken at Nettlebed, but this should have no impact on the staff or the patients. From the patient perspective, we anticipate that during this action there will be no change in the way that we work.
