CHANGES TO E-CONSULT

From Friday 31st March 2023, the current e-consult service will cease.

The new system replacing it is called PATCHS. It works in the same way as e-consult but looks slightly different. The link for patients to sign up to the new PATCHS service is now available.

COVID REQUIREMENTS

Our number one priority is the safety of our patients and staff. Therefore we still request that you:

Wear a face covering in our practice
Attend alone where possible
Confirm that you don't have any symptoms of COVID-19
Continue to follow social distancing measures

Our telephone trige system will remain in place.

Patients requesting an appointment will be managed remotely (online, phone, video), and will be seen face to face if there is a clinical need to do so. Patients will continue to be seen by staff in full Personal protective Equipment (PPE). For further information please click here.

FLU CLINICS

Flu jabs are still available. Please ring us for an appointment. For more information on the Flu vaccine please click here.

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ

For Appointments

Due to the Coronavirus Pandemic the NHS has asked GPs to run a TOTAL TRIAGE appointment system until further notice. This is important to reduce avoidable footfall in the practices and protect patients and staff from the risks of infection.

All patients requesting an appointment will be managed remotely (online, phone, video). Patients will be seen face to face only in exceptional circumstances. Any patients visiting the surgery must wear a face covering to protect patients and staff.

Please ring the surgery at 8.30am to arrange an appointment. You can also submit an e-Consult. Should you wish to arrange a telephone appointment please click on the 'Book an Appointment' tab at the top of our website to see availability. Alternatively you can call reception who can book a telephone appointment for you or signpost you to the most appropriate service.

Medication

If you are on regular medication, now would be the time to commence online ordering and nominate a local pharmacy to receive your prescription. Please telephone reception and they will activate this facility for you. Alternatively you can hand deliver your prescription request by placing it in the post-box at the front door of the practice or send it through the post to us.

Due to the current increase in demand, please allow four working days for prescription requests to be processed. Thank you.
