How do I... Make An Appointment?Appointments can be booked by telephone or by calling into the surgery during office hours. You can pre-book some routine appointments with a GP in the mornings in advance. You will also be able to obtain an appointment within 48 hours with a GP or practice nurse within 24 hours. Nurse emergency system will still be available for more urgent cases. Telephone consultations are available with either a GP or nurses during the working day; ask reception for details. If you are unable to attend your appointment it is your responsibility to let us know as soon as possible so we may offer the appointment to another patient. You are at risk of being removed from the practice list if you continually miss appointments. How do I... Obtain Telephone Advice?There are times when you may wish to speak to the doctor or nurse about medical problems or for advice. If you wish to speak to the doctor or nurse, advise the telephonist of your needs. Telephone consultations are now available, please advise reception that this is what you require. Emergency help, advice, can be usually dealt with by the reception staff who will contact the doctor and get an early reply. You can also access NHS Direct 24 hours a day on 0845 4647 or online at www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk. How do I... Obtain A Home Visit?If you are too ill to attend the surgery and require a home visit, please telephone before 10.00am so that a visit can be arranged. Doctors plan their home visit on completion of morning surgery. Please note: for a home visit, the doctor will require a member of the family, or a friend, to be present. How do I... Blood Test Results?Please ring for your results about two weeks after your test between 3.00 and 6.00pm Monday - Friday.
