Following NHS England’s guidelines, the practice is going to be operating a triage first system. This means all appointments in practice will be a phone call first and then your clinician will assess you and if appropriate will offer a face-to-face consultation.

GP Consultations
If your ring the surgery for an appointment with the Doctor, the Doctor will telephone you first and if they need to see you face to face they will offer you the time to come in to see them.

Face Masks – we ask that every patient who attends the surgery for an appointment to wear a face mask, this is to protect yourselves and the staff.

Nurse & HCA Appointments
For all Nurse appointments  you will receive a phone call from one of our Nurses prior to your appointment.

If you need Nurse appointment, please call the surgery on the day you want the appointment. You will be triaged first then offered an appointment.
