From today, if you or a family member is suffering with a sore throat or sinusitis, an ear infection, an infected insect bite, impetigo, shingles or even an uncomplicated urinary tract infection – Just think pharmacy first!

This is part of a major plan to make accessing healthcare in you local community more convenient.

Booking an Appointment

The easiest and fastest way to get any kind of help is with askmyGP. It saves us time too, so please help us to help you.

– Available Monday to Friday 6am-10.30am – we respond in working hours, 8am to 6pm Monday to Friday (Weds half day)
– We can usually get back to you within the hour, and will see you same day if needed.
– All our registered patients are welcome, parents and carers on behalf of patients too.

Other ways to book

You can still telephone us to book an appointment any time during opening hours and speak to one of our Patient Services Team/Care Navigation Team (formerly known as Receptionist).

Care navigation allows our front-line staff to provide patients with more information about local health and wellbeing services, both within and outside of your GP Practice, in a safe, effective way. It means that patients will find it easier to get a GP appointment when they need one.

When a patient contacts the practice, our Patient Services Team / Care Navigator will ask for a brief outline of the problem, this isn’t about being intrusive, it is aimed to allow the care navigator to identify the patient’s need and provide information about services in the practice, other NHS providers and the wider care and support sector. Where appropriate, they will direct the patient to these services. All practice staff are governed by Data Protection & Confidentiality policies.

The scheme is designed to help give patients choice, offering them support and guiding them to the right information about other health care professionals who have the expertise to deal with a range of health and care illnesses and injuries. It also supports patients to be seen by the right person at the right time and in the right place.

See a GP or Nurse Evenings and Weekends at your convenience

We have appointments to see a GP or Nurse (for a smear) between 6.30pm-8.00pm on weekdays, and between 10.00am-4.00pm on weekends and bank holidays.

Patients can book an appointment using Askymygp or calling us on 481500.
