Doctors surgeries across Lincolnshire remain open say leading clinicians.

South Lincolnshire Clinical Commissioning Group says GPs are continuing to treat patients but telephone and online triage systems have been put in place.

Earlier today (Friday), Long Sutton Medical Centre put up a notice to state that it was "stopping face-to-face" routine appointments.

An NHS spokesman said: "There are no General Practices closed in Lincolnshire.

"Practices will be supporting their patients to receive care in a different way. Telephone or online triage systems are in place to ensure the patients are managed appropriately whilst ensuring the safety of all patients and practice staff.

"Following telephone or online triage, if a patient needs to be assessed clinically face to face they will be advised how this will be managed.
