Between Wednesday 1st October to Friday 3rd October we will be unable to offer non-urgent blood tests at this practice.
This is not unique to our practice – other GP practices in the area are affected too. The pause is due to our local hospital trust, East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust, upgrading the patient record systems that process blood results. Once complete, the upgrade will support a more joined-up service across the area.
We expect services to return to normal from Monday 6th October.
We understand this may be frustrating and apologise for the disruption.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
NHS Suffolk and North East Essex
