Vaccine Shortages
Currently the local surgeries are experiencing a shortage of supplies of vaccines for the covid spring booster and therefore we cannot plan future clinics with any certainty.
We will, when vaccines are received, organise clinics as soon and as efficiently as possible but for now the situation is out of our hands.
If you receive a letter from the government informing you that you are entitled to a spring booster and you are able to travel, we suggest you book with a national vaccination centre.
Otherwise please bear with us and we will get round to you once vaccines are supplied.

Order repeat prescriptions online
Patient Access allows you to order repeat prescriptions, as well as book GP appointments and find local health services for you or your family via your mobile or home computer.
Sleights and Sandsend Medical Practice
is part of the Whitby, Coast and Moors Primary Care Network (PCN). PCNs have been created to help integrate primary care with secondary and community services and provide care at greater scale. In doing this we can develop the services we offer to meet the needs of our local population.
Our new website has links that take you to our main PCN website to avoid duplication of information across each of our local GP practices. The ‘your health’ menu tab will take you to information about all the services in our local area, information about managing conditions and looking after you and your family.
You can find out more about our network by clicking on the ‘our network’ tab in the main menu. To get back to our individual practice site, simply select our practice name from the ‘practice websites’ menu tab.

- First Contact Physiotherapy
- Pregnancy Advisory Services
- Better Access Service
