Dr Emily Sullivan has joined the practice from Sept 22.

Dr Nina Bunni - On Friday 15th July the practice said a fond farewell to Dr Bunni. Dr Bunni has been with our practice for the past 8 years first as a Salaried GP and more recently as one of our GP Partners, Dr Bunni was a well-respected member of our team and had a great rapport with our patients, many we know will be disappointed to hear she has left. All that is left for us to say is Goodbye & Best Wishes and enjoy this new and exciting chapter in Scotland.
We would also like to take this opportunity to reassure our patients that the practice is actively looking to replace Dr Bunni, in the meantime we have engaged the services of a number of female locum doctors, a couple of whom are already established at our practice this will ensure that we can continue to provide a service for all our patients especially those who do prefer to see a female doctor.

We will no longer accept prescription requests via phone from 1st Nov 2021. Prescription can be ordered online or by coming into the surgery. The housebound and vulnerable patient coded on the system can use the dedicated phone line for order as before. Blister pack patients can order prescriptions via pharmacy. Thank you.

Mere Lane Group Practice is seeing patients, as usual, we offer a telephone triage, e-consultations, and video consultation followed by a face-to-face appointment if required. If you need same-day telephone consultation or video consultation, please ring the surgery in the morning at 8:00 am. You may experience an extended wait time in the morning due to the heavy demand for appointments. We may be unable to provide same-day telephone consultation if you call in the afternoon or evening. A doctor will ring you back that same day and if required you may be asked to attend the practice for a face-to-face appointment.
