We aim to ensure all patients asking for a routine appointment are able to see a GP within 48 hours of the request; and for a healthcare professional (e.g. our Nurse Practitioner or Practice Nurse) for a routine appointment within 24 hours. Within these timescales we won't always be able to offer an appointment with the GP or healthcare professional of your choice, so if you want to see a particular person you might need to wait a little longer
All consultations are by appointment, made either in person or by telephoning 01752 222341 during surgery hours. Appointments are available two weeks in advance and you will be offered the first available appointment with a doctor
To help surgeries run as smoothly as possible please bear in mind the following points:
" Be punctual
" Cancel appointments in good time - someone else may be in need
" 1 appointment is the 1 patient
A home visit can take three times as long as surgery appointment due to the travelling time. Therefore, doctors would appreciate it if patients can attend surgery whenever possible. If you are too ill to attend surgery and require a home visit, please telephone the surgery on 01752 222341. Except in an emergency, please call before 10.00am in order to let the doctors plan their work more efficiently. All home visits are undertaken at the doctors' discretion.
