Galway Bay Medical Centre is a new GP (Doctors) surgery in the heart of Galway city.

Whether you want to see a GP in Galway because you are sick, need specific medical advice, or simply would like to be healthier, we can help you. Galway Bay Medical Centre is a custom-built, luxurious, state-of-the-art GP surgery and, being on the ground floor, is fully wheelchair-accessible. The medical services are provided by 2 female GPs. News - Swine FluWe would ask patients who think they may have symptoms of the Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 'swine flu' virus (typically a sudden onset of high temperature and muscle/joint aches with sore throat, cough, nausea, diarrhoea or vomiting) to rest at home and take paracetamol or ibuprofen and plenty fluids. Only those with severe symptoms, any underlying medical condition or cases in children or pregnant women should phone the surgery for further advice. If you need to visit the surgery, we would ask that you phone in advance to warn of possible flu and to refrain from approaching the reception staff and other patients at close range to reduce the chances of spreading the infection. We can then ask you to wait in a separate area. Please use tissues when coughing or sneezing and dispose of these in a bin before washing or sanitising your hands. This flu is similar to any regular flu (but targeting younger people) and usually resolves after a few days. For further advice please call (1800) 941100 or see www.swineflu.ie
