WELCOME TO THE PRACTICE

For many years the practice has worked from two different buildings separated by the town centre. We moved into our brand new purpose-built premises in January 2002. Our well appointed building and state-of-the-art facilities greatly help us to provide top quality modern medical care. This website has been designed to tell you about the practice and the services that we offer. Please read it carefully. We trust that you will find it helpful and informative.

ON-LINE APPOINTMENT BOOKING

We are able to provide on-line appointment booking for our patients.  Patients can book any of our ‘pre-bookable’ appointments for all doctors at the surgery. For the time being it is not possible to book nurses' appointments on-line.  It is of course still possible to book appointments by ringing reception.

If you wish to book on-line appointments you will need to register to use this facility.  Registration is an easy process.  You will simply need to bring proof of ID to the surgery (the proof of ID needs to be photographic, the proof of address can be a utility bill, bank statement or council tax bill). The receptionist will register you on the system and print off a form containing a website address and a PIN number (please bear in mind that reception can be very busy between 08:30 and 09:30 am). Once you have this information, you can then log onto the website at home and enter your details.  When you have thus registered you will be able to use the on-line appointment booking facility.

Please note that it is only possible to book a maximum of two appointments at any one time.  Appointments can also be cancelled via the on-line facility rather than ringing the surgery.

If you have any questions, please contact the surgery on 01823 282151.

OPENING HOURS

The surgery is open from 8.30am to 6.30pm Monday to Friday. Surgery times and the types of appointments available vary from day to day. Up-to-date details are always available at reception.

ATTENDENCES AT ACCIDENT AND EMERGENCY

Please remember that it is not appropriate to attend the A and E department unless your problem fits the A or the E definition. We sometimes find that patients use the department as a “Walk In” minor illness unit, which puts their staff under unnecessary pressure. We always have a Duty Doctor available to speak to you and give advice or to see you in an appointment during the working day. We also do not offer a “Walk In” service as all the doctors may be absent from the building doing home visits, for example.
Please use the “Out Of Hours” service for urgent problems when the surgery is closed.

DISABLED ACCESS

The surgery is fully accessible for wheelchairs and disabled toilet facilities are available.
