SELF TREATMENT OF COMMON ILLNESSES
AND ACCIDENTS
Many common aches and pains can be simply treated at home without the need to consult a Doctor.
Please note: Our Doctors and Nurses do not routinely treat minor injuries. However, if you think your minor injury or wound needs further assessment and is not serious enough to warrant urgent A&E department assessment, you can call the surgery to discuss whether it is appropriate for our Doctor or Nurse to assess you.
