From 8:00am registered patients may book a telephone consultation with a doctor, practice nurse or the nurse practitioners for advice on an immediate medical problem. Ring reception and leave your name and telephone number (at home or at work) where you will be for the following 2 or 3 hours and your consultation request will be answered. You may also book a telephone consultation with your own GP for the afternoon, if you book in advance as you would a routine appointment.

If you need advice about a medical problem, please ring reception and leave your name and number. A doctor will call you back to offer advice. Please remember, if you have ‘call barring’ on your own telephone we will be unable to ring you back as our calls go through a switchboard.

PLEASE RING 08444 778966 before 12noon if you wish to speak to your own GP

Telephone Advice is often an effective way of solving a problem other than actually seeing a doctor. Please avail yourself of this service if you think it useful.

Please telephone before 10:00am if a home visit is essential. Home visits are usually in the afternoon after morning surgery. Remember, the doctor is best able to assess your condition at the surgery where we have the equipment and facilities.
