Bodmin Road Health Centre

Industrial action and impact on NHS services over the Christmas period

As you may well be aware, Junior Doctors in England are staging industrial action on 20th, 21st, 22nd December 2023.

As a committed training practice, junior doctors here at Bodmin Road Health Centre form an integral part of our workforce.

As such, industrial action will have a significant impact on the service we are able to offer the week of the 18th of December 2023 inclusive.

We therefore respectfully request that during these dates, our patients:

  • Contact the surgery only for urgent medical problems that cannot wait until the following week.
  • Avoid contacting to discuss routine test results during this week.
  • Understand that we will have less capacity for GP appointment during this week.

If you have a musculoskeletal problem, such as pain in joints, back or muscles, then please contact us to speak to one of our First Contact Practitioners, who specialise in diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal conditions.

Thank you in advance for your understanding.
