Welcome to the Blackwood Clinic

The Blackwood Clinic is a fully accredited general practice with experienced General Practitioners who provide a complete and personal approach to patients medical needs with a focus on preventative medicine and active health promotion. Our nursing team work in close collaboration under the guidance of our GPs to deliver this quality service.

Covid-19 Vaccination Update 19/3/21

The Blackwood Clinic is pleased to announce that we will be contributing to the Covid vaccination effort. However, there are many challenges ahead. Like many other GP clinics, The Blackwood Clinic will be receiving limited vaccine supplies, initially 50 doses per week. The community demand will vastly exceed our vaccine allocation for the near future. Please except delays.

Given the small number of vaccinations available, The Blackwood Clinic will contact patients directly to make these bookings. This process will take into account a persons age, medical problems and other demographics. We understand the community by and large are keen to commence their vaccination course, we ask patience and understanding through this time. We expect our first day of vaccination to be held on Friday 16 April.

You do not need to do anything at this time.

We also ask that phone calls enquiring about the vaccine, or efforts to secure a vaccination be avoided. Our phones have gone into 'meltdown' with Covid enquiries, and we are struggling to manage the normal flow of GP admin work.

FLU SHOT BOOKINGS NOW OPEN

Vaccination is the best defence against the Flu. By getting your Flu vaccination you are not just protecting yourself, you are also protecting vulnerable people who cannot receive the vaccine themselves such as young babies less than 6 months old and those who have low immunity.

We will be running Flu Clinics at Blackwood Clinic on Young, phone 8278666 to book your appointment.
