Newsletter
We hope all our patients had a lovely Christmas.
As previously advised, due to logistical reasons, we were unable to publish our weekly newsletter in the week before Christmas and have therefore issued this bulletin earlier than usual.
The next news update will be on the normal publication day of Thursday and is due out on Thursday, January 8.
Happy New Year to You All
…and finally, we would like to wish all our patients a very Happy New Year.
We look forward to providing the best service possible for you all in 2026.
