Busy 2 days vaccinating against Covid and Flu. Patients very grateful to be vaccinated in the run up to Christmas. Thank you @FionaCMcQueen for your help

[Barns Medical Practice @Barnstweets]

Delighted to hear at the RCGP conference in Liverpool this week from the heads of the RCGP in both UK and Australia that GPs want to deliver Covid vaccines to their patients #RCGPAC #continuityofcare Regrettably most of our patients are being sent to MVCs instead 😔

To everyone at the practice
People always tend to reflect on the bad and when I hear people saying……

[Barns Medical Practice @Barnstweets]

they can’t get an appointment and GPs arent seeing anyone etc etc. I just want to scream out thats not the case……You have all been amazing during the pandemic. Myself and my family have had nothing short of amazing care throughout the pandemic, never had a problem to see……….
