The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) recently declared measles as a national health incident due to a surge of cases across the UK and because uptake of the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine is at its lowest level for more than a decade.

In order to protect our staff and other patients, if you have symptoms of measles (a fever and a rash that starts from the head/neck down) and have not been vaccinated, please do not attend your appointment.

More information about measles can be found on the NHS website here. 

Please contact your GP to discuss getting vaccinated against measles.
