Appointments

Please telephone or call into the surgery to make your routine appointment which can be booked up to 4 weeks in advance. If you would prefer to see a specific doctor, please tell us at the time of booking.

A routine appointment with the doctor is for 10 minutes and for one problem only.  If you think you require more time then please let the receptionist know at the time of booking the appointment.

To book emergency appointments for clinically urgent problems please call at 08:30am to book an emergency morning appointment and 15:00 to book an emergency evening appointment for the same day. 

An adult must accompany children under the age of 14 to consultations.

Patients can also book one appointment via SystmOne online to view, book and cancel appointments.  Please see the information on the home page on how to get user access for SystmOne online

In an EMERGENCY ring anytime.

Monday Evenings - Extended hours

We offer late evening opening on Monday after 18:30 for pre-booked appointments.

The telephone switches over to the GP out-of-hours Service at 18:30 .

Practice Nurses

In a number of cases it might be worth considering an appointment with a practice nurse rather than a doctor. Practice nurses are qualified to deal with many conditions and you may be seen more quickly.

Telephone Advice

If you wish to speak to a doctor or nurse about a medical problem you can book a 5-10 minute telephone consultation instead. The receptionist will give you a time slot (usually an hour long) within which the doctor will call you back.

Text Message Reminders

The practice will send out text (SMS) messages to help people remember to keep their appointments.

Cancellations

If you cannot attend an appointment for any reason please cancel your appointment / OR inform us as soon as possible in order for us to give the slot to someone else.  

 There is now a facility for you to cancel your appointments online.  To manage appointments you will need to access appointments via this website and log in with your username and password.  Please contact the surgery to get your username and password.
