Important Patient Notice: Bridgnorth Medical Practice temporarily closed following significant flooding
Please note that this webpage will be updated as more information becomes available.
Dear patients,
We regret to inform you that, following significant flooding at Bridgnorth Medical Practice, the building is temporarily closed while the situation is assessed and made safe.
As a result, appointments scheduled at the Bridgnorth site are currently cancelled. If you have an upcoming appointment, please do not attend the practice unless you have been contacted with further instructions. We will be in touch with affected patients as soon as possible.
The flooding has unfortunately caused substantial damage to the building, and the safety of our patients and staff must remain our priority. This means we are currently unable to provide services from the Bridgnorth premises.
In the meantime, clinical services are being delivered from Highley Medical Centre, where we are operating a GP and Nurse Practitioner-led urgent care service. Priority is being given to patients with the most urgent healthcare needs.
If you require a blood test, please book an appointment at the Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC). Unfortunately, patients without a booked CDC appointment will not be able to be seen.
