Practice nurse appointments
Patients are seen in the surgery by appointment. If you feel that you need to see a doctor urgently, any information that you can give helps the receptionists and doctor to assess how best to arrange this.
Although we try to give appointments with the doctor of your choice, this may not always be possible if you need to be seen quickly.

Extended hours surgery
There is a late evening surgery session on Mondays and Wednesdays between 6.30 – 8.00pm (last appointment at 7.20pm). This clinic is by appointment only and for people who are working during routine surgery opening hours.

Keep it or cancel it – but don’t forget it!

If you are unable to keep your appointment please let us know as soon as possible so that it may be given to someone else.
