Appointments

Currently, as with some other practices across our region, our eConsult service has been disabled at weekends due to concerns of patient safety, as a result of overwhelming demand. You can still utilise this service during opening hours and can continue to seek help from the NHS website, local pharmacy services and 111 at the weekend.

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.

Why does the receptionist need to ask what’s wrong with me?

Our reception staff are important members of the practice team and it has been agreed they should ask patients ‘why the need to be seen’.

We have trained our reception staff to ask certain questions to help make sure you receive the most appropriate medical care from the most appropriate health professional at the most appropriate time.

Online Consultation

Econsult can be useful for administrative requests such as sick notes and for sending in Blood Pressure results. Please do not send an eConsult if you are expecting a telephone response as these are a form of electronic communication only. We will no longer be booking appointments via econsult.
