The spokeswoman added: “The health centre remained closed for the rest of the afternoon, but patients were still able to contact their GP surgery by phone.
"The centre opened as normal today, and investigations continue into the cause of the fire. We would like to apologise to any patients who were inconvenienced.”
A spokesman for the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service said: "We can confirm that the fire service did have fire appliances in attendance. They investigated an issue and left it in the hands of the health centre."
