Welcome to The York Medical Practice

COVID-19 Booster Programme

We have now started the roll out of COVID Boosters at the Practice. You will be invited to book your booster as soon as you are eligible. This is once you are 6 months post your 2nd jab, the booster should be completed within 8 weeks of this date. You may also be contacted via the NHS National Booking System via text or letter, it is your choice whether you book via this rate or wait to be contacted by the practice. If you believe you are over due your booster please contact us.

Flu Vaccination

If you are over 50 or in a clinically at risk group please call the practice to book your free NHS Flu Vaccination. We have a variety of appointment times and lots of availability.

Important information about blood tests

A supplier to the NHS has advised us of a global shortage of some equipment used for taking blood tests.

Anyone who needs a test for urgent health problems, will still get one but where your clinician recommends that it’s safe to do so, then you may be asked to come back for a test at a later date, or your appointment may be rescheduled.

Given the nature of the shortage, we cannot give an exact date for when the test will be rescheduled, but please be assured that if your condition or symptoms require it, then you will get a test, and we will be re-booking your test when supplies become more easily available.

If your condition or symptoms change or get worse, please contact the NHS as you would normally.

Prescription Requests

Please note that we now require 72 hours notice for repeat prescription requests.
