Covid Vaccination Latest Update 19th April 2021

South Hambleton Vaccination Team which is Tollerton, Millfield and Stillington Surgeries operating from the Galtres Centre in Easingwold.

On behalf of Tollerton Surgery:

If you are waiting for your Covid Vaccination, please be assured we are working as quickly as possible to provide it for you.

We are now pleased to be able to offer appointments to cohort 10, which is patients 40 years and over.  If you are in this category, we are trying to contact you. Please therefore call the surgery to book in for your vaccination.

If you are waiting for your second vaccination, as this wasn’t booked with your initial appointment, we will be contacting you around 11 weeks after your first vaccine.

Thank you for patience and understanding.

Covid Vaccination update 8.1.21

If you are waiting for your Covid Vaccination, please be assured we are working as quickly as possible to provide your vaccination.

Vaccine supplies are being delivered to Primary Care Network groups and Tollerton Surgery is grouped with both Millfield and Stillington surgeries.

Small amounts are being delivered and shared between the surgeries on an ongoing basis and we are unable to vaccinate everyone in the recommended cohorts in one session.

You may hear of friends being offered the vaccination but please be assured we know you are waiting and we will be in touch as soon as supplies permit. We are fully aware of each and every patient in our priority groups and you will not be missed.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
