Your East Grinstead GP is still open for business. Please do not neglect your important health needs and concerns during the current COVID-19 situation.

Patients will be offered a phone or video consultation initially. Should you need to attend your GP Practice we are taking care to make your visit as risk free as possible with stringent infection control procedures including waiting in your car if you arrive by car, prior to your assessment.

As there are fewer ‘face-to-face’ appointments we are able to maintain social distancing within the waiting areas.

Please contact your GP Practice by telephone. Please make use of 111 and your local pharmacy for simple illnesses of which hay fever is increasingly common at this time of year.

Potential COVID 19 Cases

All of  the GP practices that serve East Grinstead have come together as a  joint ‘hot hub’ for suspected COVID-19 cases based at the EG Health Centre (next door to Moatfield surgery).

From this week NHS 111 may refer people with suspected COVD-19 who  will have an initial assessment in a drive through tent and where further treatment is needed will be seen inside the health centre.  You cannot attend the hub without an appointment.

There are barriers at the site (loaned by the Town Council) to help  stream people waiting for prescriptions,  or going to different parts of the site. The barriers are there for everyone’s safety so please follow signage as directed.
