All patients registered with the practice may request a consultation. This can be done either by visting the surgery or telephoning us on 01745 350680.  A home visit will be provided at the discretion of the doctor if the patients medical condition prevents attendance at the surgery.

All of the nurses & doctors do sessions at both surgeries and patients can book appointments at the surgery of their preference. 

You may ask to see your preferred GP and we will make every attempt to accommodate your request where feasible.

If your appointment is of an urgent nature, we cannot guarantee that you will be able to see your preferred GP.

If you have an issue requiring immediate attention, please inform the receptionists. They will attempt to schedule a suitable appointment for you if available. Occasionally, they might ask for a brief explanation of the problem to ensure the most appropriate appointment. While you're not obligated to disclose the issue, it aids in finding the most suitable appointment. We appreciate patients not misuse urgent appointments. Those clinically triaged as needing urgent assessment receive a same-day consultation, which may be in person, over the phone, via video call, or through a home visit.

If you would like to speak to the doctor or nurse by phone then please ask the receptionist for a telephone consultation appointment. 

All children under 16 years of age with acute presentations will be offered a same day consultation.

 This will save you having to join the queue.

We offer home visits for clinically justified cases such as house-bound patients and the terminally ill. If you need a home visit, please contact the surgery early for the doctor's availability. Whenever possible, please try to attend the surgery, as the doctor can see multiple patients in the time it takes for one home visit. Home visits are reserved for genuine health reasons, not simply for patient convenience. In most cases, we prefer small children to be brought to the surgery for a more comprehensive assessment, as we can provide better care with available facilities and often see young children more promptly by scheduling them between existing appointments.

If your request is for an emergency then dial 999.
