Book a GP Appointment

There are always appointments available for the same day if you wish to be seen urgently, although these may not necessarily be with your preferred doctor. 

Many health issues can be resolved over the phone or by video link and it is important that we have your up to date phone number.

If you feel that your problem is urgent and you need to be seen the same day, please advise the receptionist who will initially get the doctor to phone you back.

Whilst we encourage continuity, patients may consult any member of the team.

Upon arriving, please check in that you have arrived at the check in screen at the entrance.

Patients should only attend the hospitals A&E department if they feel that their problem is an emergency requiring emergency hospital treatment.

Home Visits

Home visits will only be made in exceptional circumstances. Please remember that the diagnostic equipment and treatment facilities that we have at the surgery will allow your health problem to be more effectively diagnosed and  treated in the surgery setting .If you feel that you are too ill to come to the surgery, a home visit can be arranged after a discussion with the doctor who will decide with you  whether it is in your best interests to see and examine you at home or at the surgery.

Please note that home visits are for the genuinely housebound and when your medical condition warrants it and not because there is a lack of transportation to the surgery or for social convenience.  

You can be visited at home by a community nurse if you are referred by your GP. You should also be visited at home by a health visitor if you have recently had a baby or if you are newly registered with a GP and have a child under five years.

Chaperones

The Surgery prides itself in maintaining professional standards. For certain examinations during consultations an impartial observer (a “Chaperone”) will be offered.

This impartial observer will be a trained member of staff who is familiar with the procedure and be available to reassure and raise any concerns on your behalf. If a chaperone is unavailable at the time of your consultation then your examination may be re-scheduled for another time.

You are free to decline any examination or chose an alternative examiner or chaperone. You may also request a chaperone for any examination or consultation if one is not offered to you. The GP may not undertake an examination if a chaperone is declined.
