When you ring your gp surgery does it not give you another surgery to ring. You do need to make sure certificates are in place. If not maybe ring walk In centre maybe they can offer advice.

No surgery does not give another number, consultations are being done via phone and face time call backs, have been for 2 weeks, tried 111 but they don't do them, felt bad they are So busy, thanks for reply.

My daughter rang surgery to ask for certificate Doctor gave one as he could see that rescue pack was being used. All done over phone.

Thanks for reply, I did phone surgery today, was told GPS very busy and if I try phoning again on Monday I may get phone consult if they are not too busy. I know they are busy, we nurses are too but I need to pay bills, it might only be £94 but I need it. She did say maybe I will get Shielding letter as they have not sent theirs yet, could not tell me due to Data Protection. Guess I will wait until Monday, Thanks again. Stay safe.
