🚨NEW ONLINE BOOKING SYSTEM 🚨

Our new online booking system is live - Automed - You can download the AMSConnect app and find our clinic this way. Alternatively you can access the booking system via our website - https://www.blacksmithsfamilymedicalpractice.com/book-an-appointment

We are still getting used to it - You must enter the matching number that we have on file for you and this is for existing patients only.

THANKYOU for your understanding while we navigate what we believe to be a big upgrade 👍
