If it is assessed that you are medically unfit to travel a home visit by a Doctor may be considered. Requests for home visits must be made before 11.30am.

 

Please note: A home visit is at the discretion of the Doctor. A rash temperature does not prevent patients coming to the surgery and will not endanger others.

 

To arrange appointments, please telephone the surgery number (see above). 


How to make an Appointment:

To arrange an URGENT appointment please telephone the surgery number (see above) and select option 3. Alternatively if this is a new problem you could see a Nurse Practitioner at Wansbeck Primary Care Access Centre depending on your symptoms


How to cancel an Appointment:

topTop of Page

It is really important to let us know if you need to cancel it because it enables us to offer your appointment to someone else.

Up to 137 patients fail to cancel their appointment each month. This wastes a lot of valuable Doctor and Nursing time and also means everyone waits longer to be seen.
