Appointments

If you need to book an appointment please be aware that we can book up to one month in advance .  We are still providing a limited number of telephone advice appointments with the GPs. If you feel that you have a routine medical problem that you wish to discuss with a GP please speak to a receptionist who can check the availability of these appointments. Once booked a GP will phone you either during or after the mornings surgery. Please help the receptionists by providing your full name, date of birth and telephone number.
