In addition to the practices normal opening hours, you can also book an appointment in the evenings and weekends. This may be with a different GP, nurse or location than you are used to. These appointments are pre-bookable by contacting the surgery during our opening times ‑ please ask for an extended access appointment.


Making an Appointment to See a Doctor

The Doctors have requested that all our Receptionists ask a little about the reason youd like a GP appointment. This is so you can be directed to the most appropriate person. Please dont be offended if a Receptionist asks you what you are calling about.


Urgent Appointments

If you need to speak to a doctor urgently, please ring as early as possible on the day – lines open at 8.00am. The receptionist will arrange for one of the duty team to ring you as soon as possible. If the doctor needs to see you in person, an appointment will be booked for that day.


Non Urgent Appointments

If you would like to book a non-urgent appointment you can ring reception between 8.00 am ‑ 6.30pm. Depending on which GP you wish to speak to, you may need to wait for a routine telephone appointment another day.

If you would like to ask the Doctor a specific question, there is an opportunity to complete and email a form to us from this, which will be attached to your electronic records.
