LEXACOM

We are delighted to inform you that we have invested in Lexacom, a digital dictation and transcription service. It enables authorised users to dictate notes, which are then transcribed either via speech recognition software or by designated transcription staff. This service supports efficient and accurate clinical record-keeping while ensuring compliance with data protection and information governance standards, and more importantly…it means we are able to spend more time with you as opposed to writing up notes.

THINKING ABOUT WEIGHT LOSS INJECTIONS LIKE MOUNJARO?

The Government recently announced that some GP’s can now prescribe weight loss injections — but only under very strict criteria. We are currently contacting all patients eligible in the first year of the scheme to discuss suitability and initiation. More information can be found here: https://www.sussex.ics.nhs.uk/tirzepatide-mounjaro-for-weight-loss-support/

HOW TO CONTACT US

We have listened, and we are improving the way patients access the surgery. We appreciate that contacting us at 8am can on occasions prove difficult, and that booking an appointment in the future can be a challenge, therefore we have introduced a new access system called ‘KLINIK’ – Click here to learn more
