Prescription ordering feedback:


The UK government’s 10 Year Health Plan places the NHS App at the centre of digital healthcare, aiming to make it the “front door” to the NHS by 2028. Patients will increasingly be directed to use the NHS App instead of other platforms like SystmOnline, with expanded features for advice, service navigation, and care planning.

However Peak and Dales are aware that some patients would rather order on SystemOnline. We have re added this link onto our website however we would advise to use the NHS app.

❗️Christmas and New Year Appointment Notice❗️

During Christmas week and New Year week, there will be no pre-bookable doctor appointments.

All appointments during this period will be same-day telephone appointments.

If after your call, the doctor feels you need to be seen in person, a face-to-face appointment will be arranged for you.

You can still complete the online triage form, available via the NHS App or on our website. These forms will be reviewed and triaged by the on-call doctor.

Please note we will be closed Christmas day, Boxing day and New years day.
