Corona Virus Update
The surgery has adapted and implemented ongoing safety measures in the practice in line with public health advice from the HSE. We greatly appreciate your support and understanding under these circumstances.
All patients and visitors to the surgery are requested not to attend in person at Boyle Clinic without phoning ahead and speaking to one of our dedicated staff. This is to ensure safety for our patients and to help protect our staff so they can continue to provide care to our patients. Due to Covid-19 Telephone Consultations are in place and patients will only be brought in if deemed necessary by the Doctor. If you are attending an appointment at the surgery, please wear a mask and sanitise hands on arrival and exit.
If you develop symptoms of COVID-19, you will need to self-isolate at home and contact the surgery. One of our GP’s will access you over the telephone. Workers and the self-employed are entitled to Illness Benefit if you have been medically advised to self-isolate or are ill due to COVID-19. Following certification from one of our GP’s, apply online at mywelfare.ie for the emergency COVID-19 payment.
