All patients who require an appointment will need to contact us online

If you are unable to complete the form online, our reception team will be happy to assist you.

All appointment requests will be reviewed by our doctors, and you will be contacted with the outcome.

Home visits

If you are housebound or too frail to attend the surgery, you may request a home visit.

When calling, please be prepared to provide details that will help the doctor schedule their calls effectively. To ensure we can reach those in greatest need, we ask that you only request a visit if it is strictly necessary.

Please remember that transport issues do not qualify for a home visit; the doctor will review each request based on medical urgency.

If you need a home visit, you can help us by calling reception before 10am or by completing an online request.

Sickness certificates

You must give your employer a doctor's 'fit note' (sometimes called a 'sick note') if you've been ill for more than 7 days in a row and have taken sick leave. This includes non-working days, such as weekends and bank holidays.

Request test results

You usually don't need to book an appointment to get your test results.

Urgent help when we’re closed

If you need urgent help with your physical or mental health while the practice is closed and cannot wait until we reopen, visit 111 online or call 111. The NHS 111 service will assess your needs and advise you on what to do next.

If you have a serious or life-threatening emergency, go straight to A&E (Accident & Emergency) or call 999.

Change or cancel an appointment

If you cannot attend an appointment for any reason please inform us as soon as possible in order for us to give the slot to someone else.
