A TOWN medical practice will operate an emergency only service today.
Tranent Medical Practice, on Loch Road, will reduce its services this morning due to a shortage of staff.
In a statement, a spokesperson said: "Unfortunately, we are experiencing significant staff shortages due to sickness.
"As a consequence, we can only provide emergency medical care at this time.
"Please only contact the surgery if you have an immediate medical need."
