Practice updates

We are hoping to begin the first phase of Covid-19 vaccinations at the end of January. This will be for all patients aged 80 years old or over. These vaccinations will be by appointment only and we will be contacting all eligible patients to make these appointments.

We will continue to re-assess our service and make changes for the better. We welcome feedback but please provide this via post or email.

We are happy to receive requests for prescriptions via our practice email.

We are a Training Practice and you may be offered an appointment with our GP Registrar/Trainee. He or she is a fully qualified Doctor with several years' hospital experience and now gaining experience in General Practice. We also host medical and nursing students on attachment. The Practice is inspected for training / accreditation purposes. Video/Audio consultations are sometimes used for training purposes and are entirely confidential, but your consent will always be sought beforehand, you can always change your mind afterwards, if this is the case please get in touch with the surgery.

Home visits are at the discretion of the Doctor. Please only ask for a home visit if you are genuinely unable to come to the Surgery due to a medical problem. Home visits are for those who are housebound or too ill to travel. Otherwise please try to come to one of the surgeries.

If you require a home visit, please telephone before 10.00am, if possible, giving details of your problem, if asked to do so. This allows the Doctor to know how urgent the problem is and helps in the planning of the Doctor's rounds, with the most urgent cases as a priority.

Urgent visits can be obtained, when medically necessary, by calling the Surgery. One of the Doctors will attend as soon as possible, but it may not be your usual Doctor.

Please get in touch with the practice for a copy of the privacy statement.
