Please phone reception on 01382 534301 to make an appointment. Read more about appointments, including our opening times and what to do when the surgery is closed.

Consider having your consultations with the same doctor each time, if possible, for continuity of care. However, you do not need to see a particular doctor or nurse.

Reception staff may ask questions so they can direct you to the most appropriate person and to prioritise your query. The receptionists and admin staff are bound by the same code of practice as the doctors. All matters are dealt with in strictest confidence.

Our opening hours are Monday to Friday between 8am to 1pm AND 2pm to 6pm. We are closed between 1pm and 2pm to facilitate administration work.

If you are ill when we are closed and you can't wait until we open, you can call NHS24 on 111. Your community pharmacy, optician and NHS Inform are also available. Find out more about out-of-hours care.

NHS24 have provided a quick video guide to GP practice services during the coronavirus pandemic, including information about why practice staff ask for more information when you call, whether you need to come in to the practice, how GP practices are keeping everyone safe, and why some consultations are by phone.

Yes, we are trying to do as much as possible on the phone due to COVID. We also offer video consultations using Near Me where it is appropriate to do so.

Find out more on our page about repeat prescriptions.

Blood samples and some other tests are collected from the surgery at lunchtime so the laboratory can analyse/test the same day as they are acquired.

To obtain test results, please call the practice after 2pm. This is to allow us time to have results we receive in the morning, reviewed and ready for release.

Due to patient confidentiality, this is not possible without the signed permission of the patient. You can make this arrangement with us, but we need written and signed proof of consent stating who has permission to collect these results. This will be kept in the patient's clinical record.

Yes, you can apply to the practice manager for a copy of result, stating what test result you require. A first copy is free, you will be informed if additional copies incur an admin fee. You can usually apply if you're able to understand what is involved in asking to see your records. Someone else can apply to see your records if you agree to this (as above) or you can’t make decisions for yourself and someone has been appointed to act on your behalf.

You don't require a doctor's fit note for any illness lasting seven days or less. Your employer may however require you to complete a Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) form. Read more about taking sick leave on the gov.uk website.
