Welcome to Kersland House Surgery

Kersland House SurgeryWelcome to Kersland House Surgery. We hope that we are able to assist you in times of medical need and that we can, by adopting a proactive role, help you and your families to stay healthy.

The practice is conveniently located near the station, accessed through the underpass and from the main street.

We  have a small car park to the rear of the premises accessed via Buchanan Street and Grange Avenue. Parking is limited and we ask you to remove your vehicle as soon as your visit to the surgery is complete. Access for the disabled is provided on the level from the disabled spaces accessed via a side gate at the bottom of Hillhead street. If you need to use this disabled parking please arrange your appoinments outwith school delivery and collection times as Hillhead Street becomes congested with small children and their parents.

 

SWINE FLU - If you have either been in close contact with a confirmed case of Swine Flu or have recently travelled from an infected area within the last 7 days and are feeling unwell with 'flu like' symptoms, please contact us by telephone initially, rather than come directly to the Practie.  This will help us with infection control in the Practice and allow us to help you appropriately.  Thank you.

Retiral -Mrs Cunningham retires on 12 June after many years as our Practice Manager.  We welcome Mrs Lonra Weir as our new manager.

Appointments system : We currently offer same day appointments for more urgent problems and prebookable appointments for routine matters. We do ask people with minor illnesses - for example sore throats and colds to see their pharmacist for advice rather than their GP. Significant trauma involving lacerations are not dealt with in practice and need to attend A&E at the Western Infirmary.

Saturday morning appointments are now available for routine matters and may be prebooked. Urgent problems and emergencies continue to be dealt with by the out of hours service. The surgery is closed for all other matters so please don't arrive expecting to see a nurse, collect a prescription or arrange an appointment. There is a security guard who will only admit those with a prebooked appointment.

Chlamydia screening If you wish to be screened for chlamydia/gonorrhoea please ask at your consultation, or drop us a note and we'll send you the gear!
