GP news

We are now administering new COVID-19 treatments for patients at highest risk in the community. The service can prescribe oral antivirals to be taken at home, and give intravenous antibody treatments at the hospital.

The X-ray GP Direct Access service for patients has returned to a fully walk-in service, although we will review this decision regularly and let you know if we make changes to the service.

All semen analysis referrals should be made via the NHS e-Referral Service (e-RS). We will no longer be able to book semen analysis appointments through direct requests from patients or GP surgeries via email.

Men currently attending a hospital outpatient clinic for prostate hormone injections every 3 or 6 months will be advised that (unless not clinically appropriate) their next injection will be administered at a local GP practice, usually by the practice nurse.

You now need a registered site administrator to access EpicCare Link UCLH for your practice or service. If your site doesn’t have a registered administrator, you may lose access to EpicCare Link UCLH.
