How do I Register?
Providing you reside within our Practice area as shown, you can register with us.  It’s easy!  Simply contact the receptionist either in person or by phone and request registration forms and accompanying literature for each new patient.  Once the forms are returned your details will be entered onto our database and we will send for your notes.  You will be registered with the practice rather than with an individual GP; however, if you have a preference to receive services from a particular individual either generally or for particular conditions, please note this on the top of the registration form.

What if I am only staying in the area a short time?
We provide a Temporary Patient service for anyone staying within our Practice area.  This could be whilst on holiday, staying with relatives etc.  Just call into the Surgery, fill in one of our Temporary Resident forms and we will assist you.

How do I book an appointment?
All consultations are by appointment and should be made at Reception or by telephone during opening hours.  The receptionist will offer you the next available appointment with the doctor of your choice but if you feel your problem is urgent you will be offered an emergency appointment with one of the doctors on duty that day.  Alternatively, you can pre-book an appointment online through a secure site: EMIS Access by clicking here.

If you no longer require your appointment please phone to cancel it in good time so that it can be offered to another patient.

How do I order a repeat prescription?
Please see our Dispensary page.

How do I get a sick note? 
You can self certificate the first 7 working days of any illness and your employer is legally obliged to accept this and not to demand a doctor’s note (ask for an SC1).  If you think you will need a longer time off work, please make a routine appointment with a doctor.  If you are having hospital treatment, a sick note can be issued on the basis of a hospital report and you do not have to see a GP as well, just let the receptionist know and they will arrange for you to pick it up later. 

How do I get the results of any tests?
Please phone Reception after 11:00am to ask for the results of any blood tests, X-rays etc that you may have had taken.

How do I make a complaint or suggestion?
