What we need from you

  • Please help the surgery to run smoothly by arriving at least five minutes before your appointment is due.
  • Doctors’ appointments are booked at 10-minute intervals.
  • We can only effectively see one patient and one problem per appointment so please do not ask the doctor to see anyone else who is present with you during your consultation.
  • Please avoid asking the doctor for repeat prescriptions during the consultation, this takes up valuable time and we have a repeat prescription system.
  • Please inform us in good time if you are unable to attend your appointment so we may offer it to another patient.
  • If you are unwell it may be helpful to bring a sample of urine with you.
  • If you are bringing a baby please dress him or her with a vest (or other) to enable easy examination of chest and abdomen.

These measures are to help us provide the best quality of prompt service and care for our patients.
