Appointments are made either in person or by telephone on 476 2460 during the hours of 8:30am - 6:30pm on the day of the appointment or up to a week in advance. Your appointment will be given at a set time with the doctor of your choice, if available.

For enquiries after the hours of the appointments line, please ring 530 1009 for further information and emergency queries.

Appointments cannot be made with the doctors more than one week in advance. Only with the nursing team are appointments bookable for further than one week ahead.

Wherever possible, it is best to see the same doctor each time you visit as this is helpful in building up a picture of your condition. Please review the 'timetable' section of this site for more details on the doctors' availability.

Home Visits
We welcome requests for home visits from patients who are housebound or terminally ill. Please try and ring any requests in before 11am. Some requests for a visit may be dealt with over the phone by one of the doctors or you may be advised to attend the surgery and this will be arranged.

We recommend that children who are unwell are brought into the surgery for assessment, as this makes best use of the doctors time and allows for rapid assessment. If you feel your child is unwell, and there are no appointments available on that day, please ask the receptionist to discuss your concerns with the doctor.

Before you book an appointment, please check to see whether you can deal with the condition adequately yourself using the information provided in Medical Information, or can get the necessary advice and medication directly from your pharmacist without the need to see a doctor using the Care at the Chemist service.
