Lightburn Medical Centre

Hello and welcome to our website.  We’ve packed it full of useful information in a very easy to use format with the added benefit of several online functions. If you’re new to the area, have a look at our opening times, download a registration form and come and see us.

Patient Access

Changes to Access as a result of COVID-19.

The practice remains open for all essential primary care problems but on the advice of Health Protection Scotland we have put in place a process whereby everyone is screened by telephone prior to being seen. 

For the safety of patients and staff, the online appointment booking system is not available. If you feel you require an appointment, please phone the practice and our staff will be able to help you. We have increased our number of telephone appointments, and offer video consultations using Near Me. If we do need to see you face to face we will be wearing PPE to protect you and us. We ask that anyone entering the building wears a face covering unless exempt or a child under 5.

All patients will still have access to the care they require.

We appreciate your patience and understanding at this time.

Please note if you wish online access  to order repeat prescriptions (and to make appointments when normal access resumes) you must first speak to the practice to get a PIN number  and a copy of the Terms & Conditions before registering. Usually you need to come in to the practice to do this but we are able to email the information to you due to Covid 19.
