Making an appointment
If you feel you need to speak with a clinician for an urgent matter please ring the surgery on 01606 544644 and the Care Navigator will make you a telephone appointment for the same day. The clinician will ring you and if they feel you need to be seen face to face (or video consultation) they will make this appointment for you.
If you want to speak with a clinician but it is not urgent for example a medication review, you can either ring or go on your app to make a "Phone Only" appointment with a clinician of your choice.
All requests for extension to sick notes must be requested via our eConsult service.
When you come to the surgery
Wherever possible you must come alone.
You must wear a face covering if you have cold, covid or flu (this can be an actual face mask or a scarf – it must cover your mouth and nose).
