Appointments
Consultations with a doctor or nurse are available by appointment only, please telephone 01642 812266.
We do also offer some appointments outside usual working hours for patients who find it difficult to attend during normal hours. Please ask for details at reception.
Every effort is made to ensure that patients are seen at their appointment time and where possible with their preferred doctor or nurse. If you need to be seen the same day you will be offered an appointment with the duty doctor.
Please note that the practice is involved in teaching medical students, student nurses and administrative trainees and all individuals are bound by our code of confidentiality. You are not obliged to have students present during your consultation so please do advise us of your wishes.

Telephone Advice
The doctors are happy to give advice over the telephone for things such as medication, lab results or reports.
