Your appointment

We will use the information you give us to choose the most suitable doctor, nurse or health professional to help you.

Routine appointments are at 10 minutes intervals. If you want a particular time of day or a specific doctor you may have to wait longer.

We may offer you a consultation:

• by phone
• face to face at the surgery
• on a video call
• by text or email

Appointments by phone, video call or by text or email can be more flexible and often means you get help sooner.

We would ask that you cancel your appointment at least 24 hours in advance so that we can offer the appointment to another patient.

To cancel your appointment:

• use the NHS App or use your NHS account (through the NHS website)

Home Visits 

If you are housebound and need an appointment, we will do a home visit. We will phone you first to understand what you need.

To request a home visit, it’s helpful if you phone the practice before 11am. Calls for visits made after 11am will be asked to phone 111 or call back the following day, unless it is an emergency.
