Welcome along to our Practice website where we hope you will quickly benefit from a user friendly layout and a wealth of information about our healthcare services. Find out when we’re open and what to do when we’re not, all from the comfort of your own home.

If you require urgent medical treatment when the Practice is closed, you may telephone the surgery number as normal and you will hear a recorded message detailing how to access the service you require, or you may call NHS 24 on 111

If you have a hearing or visual impairment, we can arrange to provide information in a way that will accommodate your needs.

During this busy time, we will do all we can to manage the medical needs of our patients with a range of medical professionals including GP Partners, Advanced Nurse Practitioners and Practice Pharmacists.  Thank you.

*​​Please read the information below before sending a photograph to the Practice

DIGITAL INFORMED CONSENT - EMAIL OF PHOTO

WHY a photo? - Your Clinician would like to see a photo to help with your consultation; this will allow a more accurate diagnosis and plan to be made.

WHAT options - If you cannot provide a photo you can have a video consultation or a face-to-face consultation.

WHO will see it - The Clinician dealing with your care will be able to see this photo and it will be stored in your records. In future, other clinicians and administration staff (who are also bound by confidentiality) will be able to see this photo in your records should they need to access your records during the course of their work. The photo may be shared with other clinicians for your care, e.g. if referring you to another service.

HOW -   Please email your photo to fife.f20151burntislandgroup@nhs.scot   Subject Line: For the attention of Name of Doctor                                                    Body of Text: Patient Name & Surname and DOB (a brief description if required, i.e. Right Ankle)  

The photo will only be used for direct care, unless you give us permission to use it for teaching or other purposes, e.g. writing an insurance report. The photo would also be provided if a court required your records in relation to legal proceedings. Please note that a photo from your phone to the Practice email is not a secure link and may expose you to cybercrime for which the Practice cannot be held responsible.

WHERE - The image will be stored in your GP records for as long as you have them in the United Kingdom and should be transferred if you move to another GP Practice.
