Covid-19 Red Rose Desire

Due to the current pandemic, we have had no choice but to postpone some of our services, in line with current guidance. We apologise to anyone who has been inconvenienced, and we appreciate the disruption this has had for many, especially those who were booked in for surgery, or pre-surgery consultations.

For many, due to the illness, we are also adopting our terms and conditions and our latest, can be found online. This will mean tougher pre-surgery checks, and some patients being turned away, do to underlying health conditions, heart conditions, illnesses, and asthma.

Please do not attend a consultation if you have coronavirus symptoms – a high temperature, a new, continuous cough or a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste and follow the current government advice about self-isolation. It is crucial for us to maintain an environment that is clinically safe and as clean as possible, ensuring everyone feels confident about coming into our hospitals. Please expect to be screened on arrival, everyone (including our staff) will have their temperature checked.

We ask for all patients to undergo a COVID-19 test as part of our revised pre-surgery procedure, and to confirm, we are only able to provide Covid-19 tests to patients undergoing surgery with us. Covid-19 testing or antibody tests are not available as a standalone service.

We are asking everyone who attends our site to abide by our policy on social distancing, to stand or sit at a minimum of two metres apart, and where possible to attend their appointment alone. Hand gel stations are situated around the building, and we encourage the use of these.
