There is now an app that allows patients to book appointments online using a mobile phone. The health centre was built with disabled access in mind. Nevertheless, if you have difficulties with access please let us know; we will try to help you. We have wheelchair access to the front of the building. The waiting room has accessible toilet facilities; these are freely available during surgery hours.
If you need a wheelchair to move around the building during your visit, we have one available. Just ask at reception. Our practice is inspected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) to ensure we are meeting essential standards of quality and safety. This widget provides a summary of the results of the latest checks carried out by the CQC. The practice would like to thank the various advertisers who have helped to produce this Website.
However, it must be pointed out that the accuracy of any statements cannot be warranted, nor any products or services advertised, be guaranteed or endorsed.

Services
Replace the old out-of-hours phone number, you should dial 111 if you need medical advice when the surgery is closed.
Help you access the correct local urgent health care service if you need urgent care, at any time.
You can call 111 when you need medical help fast but it's not a 999 emergency.
When you call 111, a trained adviser will ask you questions to find out what's wrong, give you medical advice and direct you to someone who can help you, like an out-of-hour doctor or a community nurse.
NHS 111 uses Type Talk for people who are hard of hearing, and has interpreters available for callers who do not speak English.

We provide all of the core services for the management of illness and disease, referring patients for other services as appropriate.
When available, a choice of hospital will be offered when a referral is required.
Some referrals may need to be made through a referral management centre set up by the Primary Care Trust to ensure that patients get to see the right person.
We also provide relevant health promotion advice.
On top of the above, patients have a right to a consultation if aged between 16 and 75 and have not been seen within the last three years.

This practice operates an "Advanced Access" appointment system with the intention of allowing patients access to a GP within 48 hours.
However, if you insist on seeing a particular doctor then this timescale may not be possible.
50% of all GP appointments can be booked up to four weeks ahead.
The other half is released on the day at 8.00am.
We offer GP telephone appointments when there isn't a need for the doctor to undertake a physical examination.
Examples could be when a patient is seeking advice or when test results have been received from the hospital and a discussion is needed.
