It was all hands on deck at the COVID-19 clinic this week. The arrival of the health pods are a great addition to the clinics. With fewer people visiting their GP since COVID arrived, there is a risk that dangerous health conditions are not being diagnosed early enough. The health pods help check some basic health indicators and if the results raise concerns then the patient is referred for a check-up. All of the GoodGym team members have done a fantastic job, in stepping up to the challenge. We have had amazing feedback from the clinical team, so a HUGE well done to everyone who has been attending these clinics.

Saturday, Windsor & Maidenhead's MP Mrs Theresa May came to see how the clinic was running. It was so nice for several of the 'GoodGym' team to be able to talk with her. Unfortunately, we couldn't capture the meeting on camera, as no photos are allowed to be taken in the clinic.....
