Change to appointment booking system

From Monday 1st August the appointment system will change.

The majority of GP appointments will be ‘book on the day’ available from 8.30am. These can be booked:

1. Booking on line via SystmOne online,

2. Over the telephone by ringing 01925 725644 option 1, or

3. In person at the surgery; however patients should note that these appointments will not be bookable before 8.30am

There will be some routine prebookable appointments available up to 72 hours prior to the appointment time. These will be the first few appointments of each day and the extended hour’s appointments from 6.30 to 8.30pm on a Monday and Wednesday.

If your GP asks you to book a follow up appointment within a specified time frame he/she will issue you with a hand written and signed slip which you will give to the receptionist. These appointments need to be booked in person before leaving the surgery.

This change is in response to patients comments/requests for a higher proportion of immediate appointments.

This applies to GP appointments only. All other appointments will remain the same.

Advice regarding minor ailments is available on either of these websites

The practice now offers GP appointments each Monday and Wednesday evening between 6.30 - 8.30pm

These appointments can only be booked in advance.

We hope our website might help you to make the most of the many services that we offer at this surgery. A few moments spent familiarising yourself with this information will help us to give you the best service we can.
