Your appointment

However you choose to contact us, we may offer you a consultation:

  • by phone
  • face to face at the surgery
  • on a video call
  • by text or email

Appointments by phone, video call or by text or email can be more flexible and often means you get help sooner.



Text Messaging

If you have a booked appointment and we have a mobile telephone number for you, we will send you a text reminder 24 hours prior to your appointment. Please ensure that we have your mobile number and let us know if your number changes.

Self Check-In Screen

On arrival at the surgery, if you already have a booked appointment please use the self check-in screen. Once you have checked in, please take a seat in the waiting area until you are called via the jayex board located in the reception area and follow the directions displayed.

If you need help with your appointment

Home visits

These are at the discretion of the doctors and are meant for the elderly, housebound, terminally ill or those who are genuinely too ill to come to the surgery. A doctor can see up to five patients in the surgery in the time it takes to do one visit. Requests should be made before 10.30am. Please give details of your problem to the receptionist. A doctor will phone you back and if he/she thinks that your problem does not need a visit they will give appropriate advice. The doctors undertake visits between 1.00pm and 3.30pm.

Think Pharmacy First

Pharmacists can give you advice on a range of conditions and suggest medicines that can help.

They may also be able to offer treatment and some prescription medicine for some conditions, without you needing to see a GP (this is called Pharmacy First).
