How to Book an Appointment

How to Book an Appointment

Surgery is by appointment only. We offer a selection of pre-bookable appointments on a weekly basis at our GPs discretion.

Otherwise routine appointments can be made by phoning after 8:30am on the day requested. The practice has a policy of 48 hours access Monday to Friday.

Appointments are allocated for 10 minutes slots. Please do not ask for other family members to be seen during your consultation as this disrupts the running of surgery times.

If there is a shortage of appointments and you feel that you need to be seen, please give the receptionist the necessary information. You will be placed on our ‘overflow list’ for our GPs to Triage.

All consultations are treated in strict confidence.

Urgent cases will be seen that day but must see the first available doctor.

DNA (Did Not Attend) Policy

If a patient DNA’s two consecutive appointments with a DR or Nurse a formal letter will be issued warning that should a further appointment be missed within the next 12 months period, it will be discussed with the Partners of the Practice, and may result in the removal from the Practice list.

Emergency Appointments

Emergencies will be seen straight away. An interpreter can be booked for consultations and is available via the telephone in emergency cases.

Cancelling Your Appointment

If you cannot attend an appointment for any reason please inform us as soon as possible in order for us to give the slot to someone else.
