Hermitage Medical Practice

We are a friendly practice situated in the heart of Morningside. Our team of receptionists, nurses, pharmacists and doctors constantly strive to provide the best service to our patients. 

We welcome constructive suggestions on any improvements we could make, please contact Carol Stewart (Practice Manager) if you have any suggestions.

RIGHT CARE, RIGHT PLACE

This winter, please help us by getting the right care in the right place by:

• searching nhsinform.scot for self-help advice on common symptoms and a guide to local services and opening times
• visiting your local pharmacy first to help treat minor illnesses and for advice on medicines, some can even prescribe
• calling your local GP practice for routine or urgent care during normal opening hours
• contacting your dentist for dental problems or an optician for eye problems
• calling 111, day or night, for minor injuries advice and treatment or for urgent care when your GP or dental practice is closed
• dialing 999 or attending A&E only in a critical emergency
