We are currently altering the way we recall patients with Long Term Conditions(eg Diabetes, Asthma). This might mean your annual review could be slightly earlier or later than previously

In addition this year we are introducing a new approach to managing long term conditions for many of our patients. Our new approach will include the production of an annual care plan highlighting agreed goals. Further details are available from the menu on this website
