APPOINTMENTS

Consultation is by appointment. Urgent appointments seen as soon as possible by whichever doctor is available. If you feel your problem is urgent and no appointments are available, please discuss this with the nursing sister on duty. She can often sort things out and has authority to interrupt the doctor. The doctors do not generally take calls from patients while in consultation: calls are screened by our experienced nursing staff and will organise further contact as appropiate.

LONGER APPOINTMENTS

Longer appointments are available for procedures, insurance medicals, complex problems etc. Please ask the receptionist.

HOME VISITS

If you wish your doctor to make a home visit. please call the surgery and speak to the sister on duty. We are not normally able to do urgent home visits. We would ask you to try to attend the surgery if at all possible as we feel the care we can give you here is optimal.

EMERGENCY HOME VISITS AFTER HOURS

Emergency Home Visits-contact the doctor "second on call" through the After Hours Service (the phone number is available on our answering machine. These visits are very strictly limited to our own established patients.
