How To Book An Appointment

Pharmacy & Self-Care

Did you know? - Your pharmacy can advise you on minor illnesses without the need for an appointment. Please speak to a pharmacist first.

Pharmacy & Self-Care

Pharmacists are qualified healthcare professionals who can offer clinical advice, over the counter medicines and their use, to effectively and safely manage a range of minor health concerns. They can also help you to decide whether you'll need to see a doctor. You don't need an appointment and you won't even be asked to make a purchase. Every pharmacy also has a private consultation area for you to talk about your symptoms in private if you prefer.

Urgent (Same Day) Appointments

Please Note: We cannot guarantee that you will be able to see your own doctor if you ask for an urgent appointment – you will simply see the next available doctor during our emergency surgery.

Appointments may be booked by calling: 01903 882191

Telephone Consultations

It may be possible for your doctor to give you advice over the telephone.

This will save you from having to come to the surgery. If you think that a telephone call is sufficient, please let the receptionist know.

The doctor will call you back after morning surgery but please be aware that the timing of the call may depend on how busy the doctor is and the urgency of the query.

A&E - Emergency Care

Please keep 999 and the Emergency Department at Hospital for serious or life-threatening illnesses or injuries only.

As the name suggests, these departments provide care for emergencies & injuries!
Whilst we can patch up minor injuries, if you have a large wound that you suspect may need stitching or if you think you may have broken a bone, we would advise you to attend the A&E department directly.
We would urge you Not to use hospital A&E departments as a source of non-emergency healthcare – you will be seen by a junior doctor with no training in primary care.
