Appointments update
For appointments from 4th April onwards, we will be trialling a new system for GP appointments, where you will be offered the choice of a timed telephone or face to face consultation. These appointments will be time limited, and we hope that patients will make suitable choices based on their clinical needs.
The Reception team will advise you of the best method of appointment if you are unsure which option to choose. We hope that you bear with us during this change as we come out of the pandemic restrictions.
If you do attend for a face to face visit, you are required to wear a face covering, sanitise your hands upon entering and when leaving, and keep your distance from others in the waiting area.
The safety of our vulnerable patients and staff is our highest priority.
Thank you for your understanding.
You may wish to use our eConsult service to avoid waiting on the phone lines, please see the Appointments page for more information.
See the Prescriptions page for how to order your medication.

The Practice provides teaching placements for hospital doctors (known as F2s) to spend time working in General Practice. They hold their own surgeries and they are supervised by an approved teaching GP. These placements last for four months.
