WhatsApp Channel – Woolstone Medical Centre SE23

Dear Patients, We are pleased to introduce our new WhatsApp Channel designed to keep you informed and connected with our surgery. This service will provide you with important updates, health tips, and other valuable information directly to your phone. Please note that this is a channel, which means you will receive messages from us. Recipients

New Telephone System

From March 2024, we have migrated to a new cloud based telephone service.

This will enable us to provide a better service to our patients in the following areas:

  1. Improved quality of calls and no more dropped calls.
  2. Improved queuing system for patients calling into the surgery. You will be informed of your position in the queue.
  3. Option to have a call-back when you are in the queue.  You will not lose your place in the queue but you will need to make sure that we have your current contact details.
  4. Automatic switch over in the mornings at 8:00am. Please note that the telephone system will automatically switch from night mode to day mode at 8:00am each morning. Any calls that come through before the switch over will not be routed through to reception and will mean that patients will have to redial the practice.

We do hope that this new service will make communicating with us easier for you, our patients.

Thank you
