News:

Routine Appointments Appointments are for 10 minutes which means we can only deal with 1 major problem or several minor problems.  If you feel you will need longer please ask the receptionist when you book for an extended appointment.
 
 
Surgery Extended Hours
These appointments are for pre-bookable routine appointments only and CANNOT be booked on the day. It is hoped this will provide a better, more convenient service for our working patients. Any urgent medical problems will be directed to the out of hours service.
Extended hours: Monday 7.30am to 8.30am, 6.00pm to 7.30pm


Late Arrivals
If you arrive 10 minutes or more late for your appointment you may be asked to book another appointment. In order to keep to appointment times, it is important that you are punctual. Same Day Appointments
Your request for a same day appointment may be passed to a Nurse Practitioner or a Doctor. The Nurse Practitioner's role is to ensure that the patient gets the most appropriate care at the most appropriate time depending on the problem. They can prescribe medicines if necessary.
You will need to leave a telephone number where you are available to speak to the nurse practitioner about your concern. You may be offered advice on how to manage the problem at home, given an appointment with the Nurse Practitioner or another health care professional.
You may be offered an appointment that day or in the near future depending upon the medical urgency of the problem. Please plan ahead for routine consultation with GP's.
Please note that all the calls are recorded to protect the patient and surgery staff. Please be assured that your confidentiality will be maintained at all times.

If you are unable to attend an appointment with one of the doctors or nurses, please telephone or use the link at the bottom of this page to cancel your appointment.
