Antibiotic Resistance: What You Need to Know

Antibiotic resistance is a serious and growing threat to public health. When antibiotics are overused or used incorrectly, bacteria can become resistant — meaning infections become harder to treat and complications more likely.

That’s why it’s so important for patients, carers, and healthcare professionals to work together in using antibiotics responsibly.

We encourage all our patients to learn more about how they can play a role in tackling antibiotic resistance by visiting:

👉 www.seriouslyresistant.com

Together, we can keep antibiotics working for future generations.
Please only use antibiotics when prescribed, and always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions.

If you have questions about antibiotics or infections, please speak to a member of our healthcare team.

Weekend opening hours are changing

From 13th September, the way we deliver our weekend service will be changing.

This service was previously managed by Leeds GP Confederation, but we are pleased to let you know that it will now be provided in-house by Leeds Student Medical Practice and The Light Surgery.

Currently, the service runs on both Saturdays and Sundays. Going forwards, it will be available on Saturdays only. Please be reassured that we are not reducing appointment availability and all the hours previously offered on Sundays will be added to our Saturday clinics.

The range of appointments will remain the same, including access to GPs, Nurses, Healthcare Assistants, Physiotherapists, and Pharmacists

This phased rollout follows updated guidance from the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE)and is part of a national staged programme aimed at improving health outcomes for people living with obesity and related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease.
