Noticeboard

As from 23rd January 2024 our practice website will be upgraded to a new platform.  It will look different and will be easier to navigate.  Patients will still access the website in the same way (www.cramondmedicalpractice.com) and all of the content that the current website holds will still be available it may just be in a slightly different place.  There may be a slight disruption to the website during the early hours of 23rd January when you may not get access but this should be minimal.  No re-registration is required if you use the website for prescription ordering.  We hope you find the website easier to use.

Self-Assessment: If you are not sure whether you are stressed or anxious or depressed, or how much you are dealing with, why not take a simple on-line test and see for yourself. This is the DASS-42 (click here) and for Depression, Anxiety and Stress you get a Score. There are 42 indicators, and you can also print out your scores. If the scores are high, please consult your GP.
