However you choose to contact us we may offer you a consultation:

Appointments by phone, video call or by text or email can be more flexible and often means the doctor or nurse can help you sooner.

Home Visits

Requests for visits must be made before 10.30am. Please only request home visits if you are incapable of attending the surgery.

Patients who are able to leave home for other reasons would be expected to attend the surgery for appointments.

Whenever possible, try and come into the surgery as facilities here are far better for examination and treatment. It helps us to judge the urgency of the call if you describe the symptoms. The receptionists are trained to deal with your call so do expect to be asked. All information is confidential. The doctor may telephone prior to, or instead of, visiting. Visits requested later in the day that are for the housebound, but are not urgent, will not be seen that day. Ring early if you wish for a routine call if you are housebound.
