This winter, please help us by getting the right care in the right place by:
- searching NHSInform.Scot for self-help advice on common symptoms and a guide to local services and opening times
- visiting your local pharmacy first to help treat minor illnesses, many can provide consultations without an appointment and prescribe medicines previously only available from your GP
- calling the GP practice for routine or urgent care during normal opening hours
- contacting your dentist for dental problems or an optician for eye problems
- calling 111, day or night, for minor injuries advice and treatment or for urgent care when your GP or dental practice is closed
- dialing 999 or attend A&E ONLY in a critical emergency

Practice Update
PRACTICE BOUNDARY
Roslin Medical Practice has changed it's boundaries and we no longer take patients from Penicuik, Rosewell, Howgate area or east of Edgefield Road/Hunter Avenue, Loanhead towards Melville/Polton/Lasswade. Patients who are registered with us from these areas, at the moment, may wish to register with a practice nearer them but please be assured that this is their choice and if they prefer can remain registered at this practice.
PLEASE NOTE THAT GP PRACTICES ARE NOT CARRYING OUT THESE VACCINATIONS THIS YEAR AND HAVE NO ACCESS TO UPDATE OR CHANGE THE APPOINTMENT SENT OUT TO YOU.
From 1st May 2022 all vaccines will be delivered by health and social care partnerships instead of GP practices. Immunisations provide vital protection to you and your family against illnesses which can be serious or even fatal. For more information on what vaccines you are eligible for, and how to access these, please visit NHS Lothian's website.
