Arranging an appointment

All our surgeries are by appointment, booking then for one session in advance. To request an appointment for morning surgery, please ring from 4.00pm on the previous evening. Requests for evening surgery are accepted on the day in question. The doctors appointments are booked at 10 minute intervals. To avoid delays for other patients, please respect this and only ask the doctor to deal with one issue per appointment.

There are book-ahead appointments available to see the doctors. However, if your problem is urgent, please tell the receptionist who will offer you the next available appointment - but it may not be with your usual doctor. Appointments with nursing staff may be booked in advance.
