HOW
DO I...
APPOINTMENTS
An appointment may be booked 'on the day'.
To do so please telephone the surgery between the hours of 8.30 - 10.00am and 2.00 - 3.00pm.
Our qualified practice nurses will triage your call and give you an appropriate appointment with either a nurse or doctor.
Routine appointments can be booked two weeks in advance but are limited due to our advance access system.
HOME
VISITS If you require a home visit,
please contact the surgery and give the receptionist details of your
illness so that the doctor can assess the urgency of your call. Except
in an emergency, please phone before 10.00am.
As a matter of routine you
will be asked if you are able to come to surgery.
This is because facilities
for examination and treatment are better at the surgeries, and the less
time a doctor spends in travelling the more time is available for patients.
Nevertheless, we appreciate that some patients will need to be seen
at home when they are too ill to come to the surgery.
RESULTS
Please allow seven to ten
working days before phoning for results unless your doctor has told
you otherwise. Please phone after 2.00pm.
