From April 13th 2022 Martock Surgery will be used as a COVID-19 Vaccination Hub on Wednesdays from 9am – 6pm.
The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation has advised a spring jab should be offered to those most vulnerable to COVID-19 as a precautionary measure.
The NHS will invite people to arrange a jab through the national booking service when it is their turn. It can be accessed online at nhs.uk/covidvaccine or by calling 119.
Following this directive, the South Somerset West Primary Care Network (which Martock & South Petherton is a member) have discussed the necessary requirements and resources to support the increased vaccination of the local population and has agreed that Martock Surgery is the most appropriate site due to its central location.
For the registered patients of Martock Surgery and South Petherton Medical Centre, please be aware that on Wednesdays Martock Surgery will be purely operating as the COVID-19 Vaccination Hub and will not be available for routine/urgent medical issues.
If you require support to reach South Petherton for a booked face to face appointment, information relating to the Martock & South Petherton Slinky Bus can be found here.
We apologise for the inconvenience that this may cause but hope that you understand the importance of this programme of work in supporting our patients to remain safe.
