Appointments
Registered patients can make an appointment by telephone, via the patient online service through this website or in person. When making an appointment our reception staff may need to ask you a few questions so that you can be booked with the most appropriate healthcare professional. We now have qualified Advanced Nurse Practitioners and student Advanced Nurse Practitioners available every day who are skilled to see patients with minor and on the day illnesses.
On-Line Appointments and Repeat Medication
Patients may register (see receptionist) to allow them to make Appointment Bookings or to request Repeat Medication.
To access these services please call into reception to Register. Photographic proof of identity is required (i.e. Passport or Drivers Licence). Each patient must make an individual request for registration, the exception being parents/guardians of children under 16 who may register the child/children themselves.

Cancellations
It is your responsibility as a patient to cancel any appointment you have made in reasonable time so that another patient can benefit from the appointment slot. Even if you are unable to avoid cancelling at short notice, often the receptionist will know of another patient who can use the appointment. Please always try to let us know If you cannot attend an appointment for any reason. Thank you.
