Junior doctors strike action 14 - 17 June | News

Junior doctors in England will take strike action for three days on Wednesday 14 June to Saturday 17 June, as announced by the the British Medical Association (BMA). 

Junior doctors are doctors working in hospital who are not consultants but have an important role in patient care. The planned walk-out will cause a shortage of doctors and we are working hard to provide your appointments and/or treatment as planned.

We are aiming to keep as much elective activity across the 3 days of strike action but there is a risk that these may be cancelled at short notice.

We will be in touch as soon as possible if we need to rearrange your appointment/planned treatment. If you don’t hear back from us, your appointment/treatment will be going ahead as planned, so please attend as normal. 

Regardless of any strike action taking place, if you are a patient who needs urgent care for emergency and life-threatening cases continue to come forward as normal.

If you need to attend our A&Es where your condition is not serious or life-threatening, you may be asked to go elsewhere to seek support or you may have a very long wait for treatment. For more information on when to go to A&E, please visit the NHS UK website.

Thank you for your understanding.
