FAQ of the week

What do I do if I am unwell during my holidays away from Aberdeen?
If you are registered with a practice in Aberdeen and become unwell whilst away from the city, you can be seen by a local Medical Practice as a temporary resident. This is also what you should do if at home during vacations. Each practice will be able to provide you with information about this should it occur.
