How to Make an Appointment

How to see a Doctor or healthcare professional

Appointments to see a Doctor or healthcare professional can be made by calling at, or telephoning the surgery. Emergencies take priority at all times.

Speak to the Doctor or Nurse

If the patients wish to speak to the doctor or the nurse on the telephone during the working day, please ring the surgery the receptionist will take your details and pass to the appropriate person and they will ring back. Please be aware that the person calling you back could be a doctor, advanced nurse practitioner or nurse.

Extended Primary Care Service

This is a telephone appointment service and is available for Monday and Wednesday evenings. Please contact the surgery to book.

Patient preference of practitioner

All registered patients have the right to express a preference to receive services from a particular performer or class of performer, either generally or in relation to any particular condition; such preferences will be recorded by the practice.

The practice will endeavour to comply with any reasonable preference, but need not do so if the preferred performer has reasonable grounds for refusing to provide services to the patient or if the performer does not routinely perform the services in question within the practice.
