Appointment Times
- Monday and Tuesday 7.00am to 6 pm (extended hours: Morning pre-bookable GP appointments available to accommodate our working population - ask at reception).

An appointment can be made in person or by telephone.
Treatment Room
Our treatment room is based at Central Health Centre
The treatment room nurses run an appointment system for dressings, removal of stitches and blood checks. Access must be by referral from GP or Practice Nurse. Tel: 01698 755025
Please bear in mind that GP Practices are not casualty centres and sometimes your needs are best served in A&E.
Home Visits
These are intended for those who are either too ill to attend the surgery or are housebound. Please bear in mind that the doctor can often see four or five patients in the surgery in the time it takes to do one housecall.
During the day a request for a home visit should be made before 10.30am by telephoning the surgery and speaking to the Triage Nurse. Only EMERGENCY housecalls should be requested after 10.30am
