The Surgery
We took occupation of our new purpose built surgery in October 2003. The building has been designed to provide a pleasant and welcoming environment and it is equipped to very high standards. There is a large car park located adjacent to the surgery. Please park considerately to allow maximum use and kindly avoid the spaces reserved for doctors who made need to get in and out in an emergency. The area nearest the surgery enterance is reserved for disabled patients and for parents with small children. For patients who are disabled there is easy access and all consulting rooms are on the ground floor. We are pleased to have Jardines Pharmacy incorporating the village Post Office on site. There is also a private dentist in space sub-let by the Primary Care Trust. Please note that these are not under control of the practice and any enquiries should be made directly to Jardines or the dentist. A Partnership with Patients
We believe that looking after your health must be a partnership between the practice and you the patient. We will try to give you as much information as possible about your condition and where choices of treatment exist to explain these to you. We are now actively seeking to foster the development of a patient participation group. We aim to provide all of our patients with a high quality clinical service in a pleasant and welcoming environment. Your own Doctor
We operate a personal doctor system. This means that you will normally be seen by your own doctor as we believe that this provides the best continuity of care. If your own doctor is not available you will be informed and told the name of the locum. In all cases however the doctor with whom you are registered will retain overall responsibility for your care. If you wish to change your personal doctor you can request to do so by letter to the Practice Manager. Patients Responsibilities
We will treat all patients with respect and without prejudice. We request that you behave in the same way towards everyone working in the practice. In common with other parts of the NHS we have a zero tolerance policy towards aggressive or abusive behaviour which is fortunately a very rare occurrence but we wish to keep it that way. Wasted appointments are a major problem throughout the NHS. They waste the valuable time of the professional concerned and deprive other patients of an opportunity to be seen. If you find you cannot keep or no longer need an appointment please let us know as soon as possible so that we can offer it to someone else. Patients who repeatedly waste appointments may after warnings be removed from our list. Practice NHS Contract

You may have heard that Mounjaro 'the weight loss drug’, is now available from primary care. However, in the first few years, entry criteria have been set by NHS England to allow safe entry of this medicine into the health system, meaning not everyone who wishes to be prescribed Mounjaro will be able to access it immediately. It is not available for general or cosmetic weight loss.

Those who meet the criteria to start Mounjaro on the NHS must also be referred onto a diet and exercise support programme. This structured wraparound support focuses on good nutrition to support health and increasing physical activity. This support is designed specifically for people receiving Mounjaro to help them get the most out of their treatment and enhance their ability to achieve and maintain healthy weight loss.


The eligibility criteria are as follows:

A BMI of 40 kg/m2 or higher (37.5 kg/m2 for people from South Asian, Chinese, other Asian, Middle Eastern, Black African or African-Caribbean ethnic backgrounds) and at least four of these additional conditions:

High Blood Pressure (Hypertension)
High Cholesterol (Dyslipidaemia)
Obstructive sleep apnoea
Certain heart diseases (Previous heart attack, ischaemic heart disease, stroke, peripheral vascular disease, heart failure, etc)

If you do not meet the criteria, we will not be able to refer you onwards. There are other weight loss options available, if you wish to discuss these, please make an appointment to discuss.

Pharmacy First

The new Pharmacy First service, launched 31 January 2024, adds to the existing consultation service and enables community pharmacies to complete episodes of care for 7 common conditions following defined clinical pathways.

The benefits of Pharmacy First

In May 2023, NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care announced a Delivery plan for recovering access to primary care. Part of the plan includes enabling patients to get certain prescription medications directly from a pharmacy, without a GP appointment.

This new service is expected to free up GP appointments for patients who need them most and will give people quicker and more convenient access to safe and high quality healthcare. It includes the supply of appropriate medicines for 7 common conditions including earache, sore throat, and urinary tract infections, aiming to address health issues before they get worse.

Currently, NHS patients in England must visit their GP to access prescription only medication, meaning repeated GP visits and delays in treatment.

Community pharmacies offer a more convenient way to access healthcare that includes support with healthy eating, exercise, stopping smoking, monitoring your blood pressure, contraception, flu and covid vaccinations.

The public perceptions of community pharmacy survey found that over 90% of patients who sought guidance from a community pharmacy within the past year reported receiving good advice.

The government and NHS England are committed to ensuring patients receive the right treatment at the right time. The NHS Long Term Plan highlights the need to make greater use of community pharmacists’ skills and opportunities to engage patients. This is why we have launched a new Pharmacy First service.

Accessing Pharmacy First services

The following table shows the 7 conditions pharmacists can manage across various age ranges.

Clinical pathway Age range
Acute otitis media* 1 to 17 years
Impetigo 1 year and over
Infected insect bites 1 year and over
Shingles 18 years and over
Sinusitis 12 years and over
Sore throat 5 years and over
Uncomplicated urinary tract infections Women 16-64 years
