Patient update

Our Paediatric Hub relaunched in October 2025. It is available daily for acute problems and runs from 9:30am-1pm. Appointments can be booked online from 7am for any child under 16. We would encourage you to please book online to minimise call wait times for all patients. Please ensure that you have online access set up for your child.

Pregnancy and COVID Vaccination

New concerns have been raised about COVID vaccine hesitancy in pregnant women. New research shows that the Delta variant is more likely to cause severe illness in this group. 99% of pregnant women in hospital with COVID are unvaccinated.

If you are pregnant, we recommend that you have the Pfizer vaccine. Please see information on gov.uk.

We recommend vaccination to all of our pregnant patients.
