NEW COMPUTERISED SYSTEM

From the end of October 2023 we will be moving to a new computerised system.  Your process may take a little longer at the beginning.  We're sorry for any delays as we start using our new system and apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

GP APPOINTMENTS

TO HELP REDUCE THE POTENTIAL SPREAD OF INFECTION, WE ARE OPERATING A TELEPHONE TRIAGE APPOINTMENT SYSTEM. IF YOU REQUIRE MEDICAL ADVICE WE ARE ADVISING  PATIENTS TO PHONE AT 8.30AM.  You will be put through to one of our receptionists.  Please give a brief summary of the reason why you are contacting the surgery.  We will then decide on the most appropriate person and best method to contact you.

IF YOU NEED A REPEAT PRESCRIPTION, PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE ON OUR SCRIPT LINE ALONG WITH THE NAME OF THE CHEMIST YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR PRESCRIPTION TO BE SENT TO.  PLEASE ALLOW 48 HOURS FOR REPEAT SCRIPTS.
