We are urging people to take extra care and to use NHS services wisely during the upcoming strike action by resident doctors (formerly known as junior doctors) from 7:00am on Friday 25 July to 7:00am on Wednesday 30 July.

 The strike is likely to have an impact on some NHS services and see some appointments disrupted.

However, please attend your booked GP or hospital appointments as planned, unless you are told otherwise.
