SCAM ALERT


Please be aware of a recent report from an Essex Surgery where one of their patients has been contacted by someone claiming to be from the GMC wanting to update their records and asking about Covid vaccine and side effects.


 The GMC would never call patients to update their medical record or ask patients about their Covid vaccination. Please do not pick up calls or share personal details from this number +44 7897 074386 – it is a scam



We are an accredited Armed Forces Veteran Friendly Practice. For more information click here.
