Appointments

Configure Appointment Details

Our aim is to help patients access the right care, from the right person, at the right time.

When you contact the practice, our reception team may ask for a brief description of your problem. This helps us direct your request safely and appropriately. You may be offered an appointment with a GP or another member of the practice team, or you may be directed to another service such as community pharmacy, an optician, a dentist, NHS 24, or emergency services.

If your problem is urgent, please contact us as early in the day as possible. For life-threatening emergencies, please call 999 immediately.

How to request an appointment

To book an appointment, call 01968 675 576 and press option 1.

Our phone lines open at 8:30am, Monday to Friday.

Need to cancel an appointment?

Please cancel as early as possible so we can offer the appointment to another patient.

For medication-related questions or reviews, you may be booked in with our clinical pharmacist.

pharmacy

Your local pharmacy can help with many common minor illnesses, including coughs, sore throats, hay fever, skin rashes, eczema, cystitis in women, threadworms, warts and verrucas.

You do not need an appointment. If the pharmacist thinks you need to see a GP or another service, they will advise you.

physio

Advanced Physiotherapist

For muscle, joint and back problems, our Advanced Physiotherapist can assess, examine, advise on treatment and arrange further investigations where appropriate.

ANP

Advanced Nurse Practitioner

Can assess symptoms, diagnose illness, prescribe medication, and arrange tests or scans where appropriate. They work closely with our GPs to provide fast, expert care.

GP

General Practitioners

GPs are specialists in complex care, long-term conditions, diagnostic uncertainty, palliative care and ongoing medical problems. They work closely with the wider practice team.

Important Note for Dental or Eye Problems

Dental problems
For tooth pain, gum problems, dental swelling or mouth injuries, contact your dentist directly. If you are not registered with a dentist, use NHS Inform to find a dentist.

Eye problems
For eye pain, red eye, eye infections, flashes/floaters or sudden changes in vision, contact an optician first. Opticians are trained to assess urgent eye problems and can refer you onwards if needed.

If you think you may need to go to A&E but it’s not life-threatening, or if you’re too unwell to wait until the GP practice opens, you can call NHS 24 on 111—free of charge, 24 hours a day.

NHS 24 will help you get the right care in the right place, which may be closer to home and might avoid the need to attend A&E.
