Appointments
The Practice has a flexible appointment system to enable Patients to see
their own Doctor at a convenient time.
You can either phone us on the day that you need to be seen especially if your
problem is urgent or you can pre book
an appointment in advance except for on Mondays.
We may offer to phone you back as we may be able to save you a visit to the
surgery or schedule more appropriate care with another member of the practice
team initially.
We encourage Patients to see their own Doctor but if your Doctor is not
available we will offer you an appointment with another Doctor. We have a fully
computerised medical system so all Doctors have access to your records.
We also offer appointments with our Nurse Practitioner who is able to treat a
wide range of ailments including:
Sore thoats
Chest infection/Pain
Ear ache
Coughs, colds and flu
Blood pressure checks
Wounds/infections
Urinary tract infections
Emergency and routine contraception
Minor skin ailments
Abdominal pain and gastro intestinal pain
Appointments with our specialist Nursing team for Asthma, Diabetes and CHD
are all pre bookable.
Appointments with our Phlebotomist for blood tests are pre bookable and
available most mornings.
To make an appointment please call Reception on 01326 210090 anytime Monday
to Friday between 08:00 and 18:30.
At busy times your call may be placed in a queue. Please continue to hold.
Calls are answered in turn.
Or you can book some appointments online, see details

The phones tend to be very busy early in the day and if you do not need to be
seen that day you may prefer to phone later to book an appointment for another
day. Our receptionists wil make every effort to offer you a convenient time.
If you have an urgent medical problem and need to contact a Doctor outside surgery
hours please contact SERCO Health on 0845 2000 227.
