Services
Appointments can be booked by contacting the University Medical Centre Reception Desk: Telephone: 01225 789100.
Appointments are currently being booked as telephone consultations in the first instance before patients are able to book to be seen in person at the University Medical Centre.
Telephone consultations may either be a conversation on the telephone or on some occasions, and where appropriate, they may be via a video consultation link with the Doctor, Nurse of Paramedic that you have your appointment booked with.
We have introduced Doctorlink as an opportunity to direct our patients to the best care available to them.
This new online service will ask about your symptoms and previous conditions and then offer you the best services based on your answers.
For all urgent appointments, we ask that you undertake a symptom assessment through Doctorlink.
The symptom checker will ask you a number of questions to help to identify your problem.
The outcome of your assessment will direct you to the right treatment, whether emergency care, your GP, nurse or self-care.
There is always a nurse and doctor available for emergency problems when the surgery is closed.
The out-of-hours service is provided by B&NES Doctors Urgent Care (BDUC) please call 111.
An Urgent Care Centre situated next to the Emergency Department at The Royal United Hospital (RUH) in Bath, GP-led and open 24 hours a day.
If you need urgent care in the first instance call your GP.
If your GP Practice is closed, call 111 and you will be directed to the most appropriate service for your need.
Out-of-hours services are generally busy so please think carefully before asking to see a doctor and only do so if you genuinely cannot wait until the surgery re-opens.
Repeat prescriptions will be issued at the doctors' discretion and are normally for patients on long-term medication.
Requests for prescriptions can be made in writing, using your repeat prescription slip, by using our online services, or by attending the Practice in person and completing the repeat prescription form in the surgery.
Your prescription should be ready for collection within 48 working hours (Monday to Friday) and if you wish we can pass this through to a local pharmacist for dispensing or collection.
If you will have to pay for four or more prescription items in three months, or more than 15 items in 12 months, you may find it cheaper to buy a PPC.
Extensive exemption and remission arrangements protect those likely to have difficulty in paying charges (NHS prescription and dental charges, optical and hospital travel costs).
The NHS prescription charge is a flat-rate amount which successive Governments have thought it reasonable to charge for those who can afford to pay for their medicines.
Prescription prepayment certificates (PPCs) offer real savings for people who need extensive medication.
