Due to the recent surge in Covid-19 and the pressures on the NHS, we have been asked to stop any NON-ESSENTIAL work immediately. We are asking that you ONLY call us or do an online consultation if you have an URGENT request. Read More
Appointments
We have introduced a Total Triage system to improve the way patients access the practice online, improve how we deal with rising demand and minimise the number of people coming into practice.
If you require medical advice please complete an online form outlining your medical need and a GP will review your request for medical advice and deal with it in the most appropriate way in line with medical urgency. This may be via phone, video call or online response. If you do need a face to face appointment then the GP will arrange this for you.
The online form can be found here or you can complete it via the NHS app. If you cannot use online access don't worry, our reception team will complete this form with you.
For non-urgent issues, please follow the guidelines below and choose the right service, which can help you without any appointment. This will help us being more efficient and making an appointment available to you when you need it the most.

Pharmacy
Your pharmacy can advise you on minor illness without the need of an appointment. Please speak to a pharmacist first.
The 35 conditions which can be treated at home with advice from the pharmacist include:
Pharmacists are qualified healthcare professionals who can offer clinical advice, over the counter medicines and their use, to effectively and safely manage a range of minor health concerns. They can also help you to decide whether you'll need to see a doctor. You don't need an appointment and you won't even be asked to make a purchase. Every pharmacy also has a private consultation area for you to talk about your symptoms in private if you prefer.
