Retirement Message from Dr Stirling Bruce

Dear Patients, 

After 36 years in the practice, I am retiring as of 31st March 2025. There have been many changes over the years but it has remained a privilege to be part of your lives sometimes at the most difficult of times. The Shettleston community has become an important part of my life and I will always remember my time in the Cairns Practice fondly. 
I would like to wish you all the best of health and happiness in the future.

Stirling Bruce

ACCESSING TELEPHONE LINES

As a result of the increase in demand for appointments we are aware that patients are still facing challenges accessing our phone lines. To minimise the volume of unnecessary contacts to the Practice we ask that you order your repeat prescription via our 24 hour prescription line on 0141 531 6218. 

We also request that you do not call the practice in advance to check if your prescription is ready. Your prescription will be available for collection 48 hours (2 working days) following your request. If you have informed us of your preferred pharmacy, we will ensure that your prescription is sent directly to the pharmacy for collection.

If you have any enquiries regarding flu and covid vaccinations please contact the helpline on 0800 030 8013.

Many thanks for your cooperation
