Patient Access
You need to register to use our online appointment booking service and this is best done in person at the surgery. Please speak to one of our receptionists.
- We offer morning and afternoon surgeries as well as early morning commuter clinics from 6.30am. We do our best to offer you the most convenient time and the earliest available appointment.
- We are also able to offer you evening and weekend appointments Monday – Friday 6.30pm – 8.00pm and Saturdays 9-5pm at a local GP practice. Speak to a member of our team for more information.
- These appointments start at 6:30am and are offered via telephone and our online appointment service.
- If you cannot keep an appointment please telephone us as this frees up the appointment for someone else, patients who repeatedly miss appointments without cancelling will be removed from our list.
We run all our surgeries by an appointment-only system. Appointments can be booked by telephoning the surgery, visiting the surgery in person or online.
We try to make sure you see the doctor of your choice but if they are not available we may ask you to see another doctor.
NHS App
You can also request appointments through the NHS App.
Self-referrals
You can refer yourself to the many services without needing a GP or nurse appointment.
Home Visits
If possible please try to telephone reception before 10am if you require a home visit.
A doctor may phone you back as it may be that your problem can be dealt with by telephone advice, or that it would be more appropriate to send a nurse, or indeed arrange a hospital attendance.
Home visits are only available for patients who are housebound because of illness or disability.
Please remember that several patients can be seen in the practice in the time that it takes to make one home visit. There are also better facilities for examining and treating patients at the Health Centre.
