You must arrive at the premises at your allocated appointment time. You will not be permitted to access the building until your allocated appointment time and your temperature has been checked. Please be prepared to queue outside in all weathers. This is to ensure we can maintain social distancing measures. You must attend on your own. Please ensure that you do not have bags or coats, weather permitting, and you wear short sleeves.
Thank you for your co-operation during these unprecedented times.
The Partners and Management of the Pall Mall Surgery.
Please note that people in the 50-64-year old age group will not be vaccinated until November and December, providing there is sufficient vaccine, and no appointments will be offered for this age group until then. This is to ensure that those who are most at risk are vaccinated first. If you are 50-64 and you are in one of the other groups which is eligible for the flu vaccination, for example you have a health condition which puts you at risk from the flu, you will be invited earlier.
