Appointments

We operate a computerised appointment system.

Pre-bookable appointments

Pre-bookable appointments are available for blood tests and nurse appointments only and can be booked in advance where available.

Daily Telephone Appointments

Daily Telephone Appointments are available for triage or anything that you wish to discuss with the Doctor. To book a telephone call, you can complete a Patient Triage Form the day before you wish to speak to a clinician, a member of staff from the surgery will contact you regarding your form submission, or please call the surgery between 8am and 9am to be added to the daily telephone list. These appointments are only bookable on the same day, we cannot pre book for future dates.

Emergency appointments

Emergency appointments are offered via the daily telephone triage service. Our reception team will ask for a brief description of your presenting issue. You will receive an initial telephone call from a clinician. If you need to be seen in a face to face appointment, the calling Clinician will book this with you.

All Appointments

Appointments are for one person at ten minute intervals and for medical conditions only.

Patient Triage - AccuRx

Patient Triage - AccuRx is an online tool for patients to send an online consultation to the surgery. The GP can then respond with advice, medication or an appointment. Patient Triage - AccuRx can also be used to make admin requests e.g., sick certificates, letters etc.

Patient Triage - AccuRx’s completed before 9am will be contacted on the same day. All Patient Triage - AccuRx’s completed after 9am will be contacted by a member of the team the following working day.  Complete an online Patient Triage - AccuRx form

Please try not to extend your 10 minute appointment time as this then causes delay to other patients.

Please note, the GPs are not able to review or treat patients who have dental problems. Please liaise with your dentist regarding any symptoms to do with teeth or jaw pain.
