Alert: Important Update: Patient recall system Hero

We are now working with a new provider, Hippo Labs (HERO HEALTH) to help manage recalls for patients with long-term conditions and other important appointments such as vaccinations and cervical screening.

You may receive a text message, WhatsApp message, or NHS App notification from Hero Health on behalf of the practice.

Please be assured that:
These messages are legitimate and sent on behalf of the practice, any links included are safe to click and any information you provide via questionnaire is securely sent directly to the practice.

This new system will help us manage your care more efficiently and ensure you receive timely reminders for important health checks.
