To prevent unnecessary hospital attendances and to provide care closer to home, we can offer treatment for some minor injuries. This includes treatment to superficial lacerations including gluing, removal of minor foreign bodies from the skin, ear or nose, treatment burns and bites.
We would advise all patients with minor injuries to call the surgery for advice before attending in order to sign post you to the correct service.
