Appointment availability at a Helensburgh doctor's surgery has been reduced due to "extreme staffing issues".
The Dr McLachlan & Partners Helensburgh Medical Centre warned patients this morning to advise them of the issue.
People are still encouraged to contact the practice if an emergency appointment is required.
In a statement online, they said: "Please be advised that due to extreme staffing issues, we are only able to offer urgent appointments FOR THE WHOLE OF THIS WEEK.
"If you have a pre-booked appointment, then please attend the practice as planned. If you no longer require your pre-booked appointment, please contact the surgery to cancel.
"We would advise you to still contact the practice if you feel you require an emergency appointment.
"We apologise for the inconvenience, and thank you for your patience and understanding."
