Please watch this short video which explains how you can access services at your GP surgery and how you may be signposted to other healthcare professionals within the NHS
Travelling Abroad
A polite notice to patients that we DO NOT provide covid testing for travelling abroad.
International travel will restart from Monday 17 May. Before you travel you must consult the requirements for visitors for the country you plan to travel to. Restrictions may be in place, including proof of vaccination, tests, quarantine and reasons for entry.
From Monday 24 May, a paper-based vaccination status will be available for people in Wales who have had two doses of vaccination and are travelling to a country that requires covid vaccination proof.
If it is necessary to show a negative test before you can travel those must not be NHS tests, instead you must book and pay for tests from a private test provider (on GOV.UK)

How to request a certificate if required for urgent travel
Request a certificate only if:
- you have had both doses of the COVID-19 vaccine (you should wait 5 days after your second dose before requesting it)
- you urgently need to travel to a country which requires vaccine certification
- you are not able to either quarantine or provide tests to meet country entry requirements
Call 0300 303 5667 to request a vaccination certificate for essential international travel.
It can take up to 10 working days for a certificate to arrive. No requests can be fast tracked and certificates cannot be collected.
You can call 7 days a week between 9am and 5pm.
Calls from landlines are typically charged between 2p and 10p per minute. Calls from mobiles typically cost between 10p and 40p per minute. Calls from landlines and mobiles are included in free call packages.
We are working with the UK Government to enable Welsh citizens to use the NHS App to show their vaccination status. This will be available shortly.
Do not request a vaccination certificate from your GP or vaccination centre. They cannot provide letters showing your COVID-19 vaccination status.

Covid-19 Vaccination Information
To date Cardiff and Vale Healthboard have delivered 158,753 vaccines in Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan which is a third of our total adult population. 24,001 of these vaccines are second doses.
For people in priority group 6 (16-64 with underlying health conditions and unpaid carers) the Health Board has begun inviting these people to attend the local Mass Vaccination Centre. These appointments are automatically scheduled and you will receive a letter in the post.
There is no need to call to enquire as you will automatically receive an appointment.

We are taking the steps below to ensure that Waterfront Medical Centre can remain open.
If infected patients attend the surgery it could result in a temporary closure whilst staff and Doctors are forced to self-isolate and the surgery will need to be deep cleaned.
Please help us to help all of our patients
The latest advice is to self-isolate for 10 days if you have a new continuous cough or high temperature.
If you live with other people, the entire household should stay at home for 10 days from the day the first person gets symptoms.
If you live with someone who is 70 or over, has a long-term condition, is pregnant or has a weakened immune system, try to find somewhere else for them to stay for 14 days. If you have to stay at home together, try to keep away from each other as much as possible.
If you are worried about symptoms of Coronavirus you should use the NHS Direct Wales online symptom checker at www.nhsdirect.wales.nhs.uk/COVID19
You should only call 111 if the symptom checker advises you to.
Please do not attend your GP surgery, community pharmacy or A&E department if you have any symptoms of Novel Coronavirus to stop the spread of infection.
You can help stop the spread of Novel Coronavirus by ensuring you practice good hygiene. Cough and sneeze into a tissue, bin it and immediately wash your hands with soap and hot water for at least 20 seconds.
For up to date advice please visit phw.nhs.wales/coronavirus
Please contact us by telephone if you have any queries – DO NOT attend the Surgery. Only ring for advice if absolutely necessary and please be patient with our staff who are trying to help.
We need to ensure that only urgent cases attend the surgery. If the matter can wait a few weeks whilst this issue settles then please wait.
We are constantly reviewing the situation and this advice may change so please check our website for up to date information.
