Netherfield House Surgery are part of a wider Primary Care Network (PCN) and are a group of practices working together to focus on patient care in Cramlington and Seaton Valley for our 30,000 patients.
We are very proud and excited to be one of first PCN’s in the UK to deliver the Pfizer BioNTech Covid Vaccine. The vaccinations need to be given at one site and our PCN will deliver them from The Village Surgery, Dudley Road, Cramlington.
Delivery of the Vaccines at -70c is on Tuesday 15th December and vaccinations start at 8.30am on Wednesday 16th. We have 3.5 days to deliver 975 vaccines and this has to be repeated 21 days later for the 2nd dose!
Over the past few weeks we have worked extremely hard behind the scenes for clinical staff training to prepare to administer the vaccines, management planning and organising rotas for our 80+ year olds in the first instance.
A huge thank you to all of the staff involved in this momentous undertaking in what has been an extremely challenging year.
We have strict guidance as to who will be invited for this first cohort, so please do not contact the surgery, we will be contacting you very soon to arrange your appointment in line with this guidance and further information is available here; https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccination/coronavirus-vaccine/
When will it be my turn?

We look forward to helping all of our patients with these Vaccines in the coming months!
