Appointments by phone, video call or by text or email can be more flexible and often means the doctor or nurse can help you sooner.
When you get in touch, we’ll ask what you need help with.
We will use the information you give us to choose the most suitable doctor, nurse or health professional to help you.
Consultation is by appointment. Please telephone the surgery or call in person to book an appointment: services offered by the practice nurse
Please tell us:
If you are housebound and need an appointment, we will do a home visit. We will phone you first to understand what you need.

If you cannot attend an appointment for any reason please inform us as soon as possible in order for us to give the slot to someone else.
You can also complete our appointment cancellation notification request form. This can only be used if your appointment has been arranged for more than 24 hours in advance (excluding weekends and public holidays). You can also text to cancel your appointment.

Practices are working in partnership to provide additional GP appointments between 6.30pm – 8pm during the week and also over the weekend. If you need access to an evening or weekend non-urgent appointment, please call and speak to the receptionist at your registered practice during normal opening hours.
Your appointment may be with another practice in the area and may not be at your registered practice.
If you require an urgent home visit please try to telephone
before 11:00 and try to give the receptionist an idea of what is wrong. This helps the doctor to see the most urgent cases first and also to plan their calls efficiently.
For all non-urgent domiciliary visits including routine geriatric visits, postnatal visits and follow-up after hospital discharge, please telephone to make an appointment with the receptionist before 11:00 if possible.
You may only request a home visit if you are housebound or are too ill to visit the practice. Your GP will only visit you at home if they think that your medical condition requires it and will also decide how urgently a visit is needed. Please bear this in mind and be prepared to provide suitable details to enable the doctor to schedule house calls
You can also 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.
We have a texting service which allows you to receive confirmation and reminders about your appointments.
To have this service you will need to register by completing a consent form.
Please remember to update your contact details with us when you change address, telephone numbers and email address.
