Making an appointment by phone
Please call 01969 622391.
All consultations with doctors and nurses are by appointment only, though accidents and emergencies will be dealt with as and when they arise.
Doctors’ appointments are one every 10 minutes. If you think that you may need more time please ask for a double appointment to avoid overrunning into the next patient’s appointment.
It may be that our Advanced Nurse Practitioner, a Practice Nurse or a Healthcare Assistant can help you which may allow you to be seen more quickly. See the Who should I see? table below for more information.
Better Access – more routine primary care appointments

This is not a walk-in service – please speak to a receptionist to book your appointment.
