A warning to our Patients
We have received notification from a local GP practice that one of their patients has received
a phone call from someone masquerading as a medical professional associated with their
practice. They alleged they were a “senior health advisor” who worked alongside the practice
in question.
The caller engaged the patient initially by asking about their medical problems, both old and
ongoing. Once a rapport had been established, the caller then offered them some
medication which they could try at a cost, then proceeded to ask for bank details to proceed
with payment.
Please be assured that we would NEVER ask for bank details and please immediately decline these calls and report them as fraud on your phone if possible.
