SPIRE

On 7th March 2017, a national campaign will launch to introduce SPIRE to the public and explain what it means for Patients. NHS Scotland is improving the way it uses information from GP patient records. Please see the SPIRE page for more information and links to the SPIRE website.

Test Results

We would ask that you check the results of any blood tests by ringing the surgery between 2.00 and 4.00 pm. Most blood and urine results take one week to come back and be interpreted by the doctor. Some blood tests results may take up to four weeks if they involve more complicated analysis. If you need to book a test, please phone (01361) 883373.

New Patient Registrationsteth_keyb1

If you wish to register with our practice please either collect registration forms from our Reception desk or alternatively, please print off and complete both forms below:

Applications to Register can take up to 48 hours to be processed and we advise patients to ensure they have enough medication to last them from their previous practice so they do not run out before their registration has been accepted.

Once you have completed both forms, please hand them in to our Reception desk. Photographic identification is also required to be presented at this time.

There are two practices operating from the Knoll Health Centre - our Reception is straight ahead of you as you enter the building.

Please note Duns Medical Group is currently only accepting registrations for patients who have previously been registered with Duns Medical Group or for new babies/family members of patients already registered.
