Welcome to Moreton Medical Centre

Practice Update 15 May 2021

We are still open and here for you. We are continuing to provide services as we have been doing throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. We are prioritising delivery of care and services based on clinical needs.

If you need medical advice or treatment, please visit our website and submit an eConsult or telephone 0151 677 2327 if you do not have online access.

As well as normal GP services our practice is supporting the delivery of the COVID-19 vaccination programme. This means that at certain times, part of our premises will be used for vaccine clinics and some of our team including doctors, nurses, reception and administration staff will be involved in running the vaccine clinics.

Our staff are working extremely hard to provide services and care and we would like to thank our patients for your continued support.

We can then make safe arrangements if you do need to be seen in person.
