Surgery Afternoon Closure 20th November

The Surgery will be closed on both sites on the afternoon of Thursday 20th November 2025 from 1:00pm for clinical staff training which has been provided by Cwm Taf Morgannwg Health Board across Rhondda Cynon Taf and Merthyr.

From 1:00pm on the 20th November our telephone system will move to an automated message providing contact details for a covering GP Team. This team will only be able to deal with urgent medical problems that cannot wait until the following day. They will not be able to deal with general queries.

Please remember that you should ring 999 for medical emergencies or 111 for NHS health advice.

The Surgery will open as normal from 8:00am the following day, Friday 21st November 2025.

Flu clinic update

Flu numbers have been increasing earlier than expected this year, in the community and in hospital. 

We would encourage all those who are eligible to book their free flu jab as soon as possible. 

We are running a walk-in flu vaccination clinic in the Aberaman Surgery this Friday 31st October from 4:00pm-6:00pm.

Booked appointments in both surgeries are still available on other days.

We are phoning and sending text reminders but please, if you wish to decline the flu jab, please ring us to let us know so we stop contacting you.
