STOP PRESS- COVID 19 PATIENT INFORMATION
If you have symptoms COVID 19 please do not attend the practice.
GP Appointments
We encourage our patients to see or speak with their own GP. When contacting the surgery you will be asked for some medical information by the Care Navigation team to allow them to sign post you to the most appropriate service. Your GP can offer both face to face and telephone appointments. The majority of clinicians appointments are 10 minute duration. We ask that you try to observe the "one appointment, one problem" ethos. We strive to deal with each medical problem to the highest standard and this proves to be impossible if we are asked to deal with a number of problems in one appointment slot.
Nurse Appointments
Our Practice Nurses are qualified in specific specialist areas.
They offer appointments for Asthma, Diabetes, COPD, Sexual Health, Travel & Contraception. Practice nurses complete annual reviews, diagnose conditions and offer further appointments to help you manage your care.
Clinic Appointments
We are expanding our multi- disciplinary team and are proud to offer our patients appointments with a range of new specialists such as our Back & Joint pain clinic with our Chiropractor, Hearing Services with an Audiologist and Social Prescribing with our Social Prescriber.
Please speak to our reception team for more information.
