The earlier you call us on the day the more choice we can offer for your appointment time. Contact reception on 01604 670780. Phone lines are open from 8.00am.
PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU WISH TO SEE YOUR REGULAR GP PLEASE TELL THE RECEPTIONIST - WE WILL DO OUR BEST TO ASSIST BUT PLEASE BE PREPARED TO WAIT FOR THE APPOINTMENT
Surgery attendance is by appointment only and at busy times there may be a delay to see the doctor of your choice. However, urgent cases can usually be seen the same day by contacting reception. Routine appointments can be booked up to three weeks in advance. Doctor appointments are primarily for new problems and continuing reviews are carried out by Practice Nurses.
The practice nurse runs minor illness clinics and you may be offered an appointment in this clinic if your problem is appropriate. See a doctor if you have a new problem. The doctor will make a diagnosis and arrange appropriate treatment.
Please be punctual for your appointment – there is no guarantee that you will be seen if you are more than 10 minutes late. Unfortunately many patients fail to keep their arranged appointments. If you are unable to attend, please contact us to cancel so that the appointment is not wasted.
