PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT FROM 31 MARCH 2024 WE WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO ACCEPT

PRESCRIPTION REQUESTS VIA TELEPHONE!

 

Jedburgh Medical Practice currently provides medical care to around 7000 patients which means our GP partners are currently caring for over 2300 patients each!

2024 sees the start of a new Partnership at Jedburgh Medical Practice with Dr Scott Ferguson joining the practice as a GP Partner, many of you will already know Dr Ferguson as he has worked with us as a locum on a Monday for a few years now, however we are delighted to welcome him as a GP Partner, where he will be working Monday, Wednesday and Thursday.  Dr Ferguson is replacing Dr Robertson who left the practice in November to move away from the area to spend more time with her family, we all wish Dr Robertson all the best in the future.

Dr Galliano works a Monday and Friday and joined our team last May as part of the newly launched Borders GP Fellowship Scheme, a scheme which hopes to eventually attract more fully qualified GPs to move to the Scottish Borders.  

Rest assured all our clinicians are highly trained within their area of expertise, our patient advisors are trained to be able to direct you to the most appropriate clinician for your needs.  Therefore when they ask you some questions when you call, this is only to allow them to direct you to the best clinician for you, remember this is not always necessarily a GP.

 

Patient Information

Blood test results and prescription requests are not available via telephone until after 1pm.

If you call before this time then unfortunately we will not be able to help you.

Remember blood tests take 4 days after appointment for results to be available and you need to allow 72 hours for repeat prescription requests.

Thanks for your co-operation.
