Out Of Hours SERVICE HAS CHANGED

The Out Of Hours service (OOH) has changed. Please call 111. Click here for more information.

Patients who are late may not be seen.

In an attempt to reduce YOUR wait time we are sticking to strict appointment times. If you are late for the start of your appointment the clinician may not be able to see you as they will not be able to give you (and patients who come after you) the full assessment you require due to being rushed.

When a clinician see's a patient who is late, they in turn run late for all other patients during that clinic.

Please contact the surgery to cancel and re-book any appointment you will be late for.
