🩺 Getting the Best from Your GP Surgery

We’re here to help you get the right care, from the right professional, at the right time. Here’s how you can make the most of our services šŸ‘‡

šŸ“± Keep your details up to date
Make sure we have your correct phone number, email, and address so we can contact you about appointments and updates. You can update these via the NHS App or our online form.

šŸ’” Why use the NHS App?
A quick and secure way to:
• Order repeat prescriptions
• View test results and medical records
• Request appointments
• Receive messages from us
šŸ‘‰ Don’t forget to turn notifications ON so you don’t miss important updates.

šŸ‘©ā€āš•ļø Our team is here for you
Our patient services team are your first point of contact and work hard behind the scenes to support your care—please be kind and patient.

You may also be seen by a range of healthcare professionals, including:
• Physiotherapists (for muscle/joint issues)
• Clinical pharmacists (medication support)
• Paramedics (urgent care needs)
• GP registrars & medical students (fully supervised)

šŸ“… Appointments – what to know
• GP appointments are for medical issues only
• Submit a triage form (Mon–Fri, 7:30–9:00am)
• We’ll respond within 24 working hours

šŸ“ For admin & routine requests
Use our admin form (Mon–Fri, 8:00am–6:30pm) for:
• Prescriptions, fit notes, routine reviews, vaccinations
• Test results (or check via NHS App)
• General queries

šŸ  Home visits
These are limited—please attend the surgery if you can.
If needed, call before 10:30am.

🧪 Test results
Check results on the NHS App. We’ll contact you if there are concerns, but please follow up if symptoms continue.

šŸ“† Annual health reviews
If you have a long-term condition (e.g. asthma, diabetes, heart disease), you’ll be invited when your review is due. These reviews help keep you well and prevent complications.

šŸ’Š Lost medication?
We’ll always try to help, but replacements—especially for controlled medications—are not guaranteed and may require a review. This is to keep everyone safe.
