Appointments system
On Monday 2nd November 2009 we will be introducing a daily Duty Doctor morning rota session. This doctor will be responsible for triaging patients requesting urgent/home visit appointment requests. Please contact our reception team between 08:30-09:15am if this service is required and they will forward your information to the doctor to contact you.

Our pre - bookable appointments that are now available up to 4 weeks in advance,  routine 24 hour and 48 hour advance appointments remain as previously.

We also now have a Patient Texting Service. You will receive Text message reminders for your booked appointment in advance. Please let us know if you wish to cancel your booked appointment. We hope this service will help you to attend your appointments on time. It is important that in order to provide this service we have your up to date mobile number on our system.
Please do not forget to give us your up to date mobile number. 
 
Waiting Times in surgery
Some of the Comments suggested that the waiting time in the surgery can be anything up to an hour. In order to offer as many appointments as possible, the appointment length(10min) is often not long enough to address all aspects of the consultation thoroughly. We have already changed the appointment set up to allow catch up time for the Doctors. We can assure you these delays happen as Doctors have to allow adequate time in relation to individual consultations; this cannot be helped in most cases. You could help by asking for double appointment if you feel your consultation will not be adequately covered in our normal ten minute appointment slot

Our aim is to offer comprehensive Primary health care service in a friendly and helpful environment. We will keep you informed of any further changes in order to meet your expectations.
Thank you                                                                                          Wishing you best of health.
