Online appointment booking
In order to manage the high demand on our services and to ensure all patients are seen by the appropriate clinician, online appointment booking has been suspended. Our wider clinican team includes, First contact physio, clinical pharmacist, mental health nurses, paramedics and social prescriber. After triaging your request the GP may feel that your needs are better met by seeing one of our wider clinical team.
All patients are requested to complete an eConsult in the first instance. The GP will triage the eConsult and a face to face appointment will be booked if felt appropriate. eConsults are available between 8.00am and 9.00am, Monday to Friday. However please note, when we reach capacity, eConsult will be switched off until 8.00am the following day.
Please note – eConsults will be responded to by the end of the next working day. If you have an urgent issue please ring the practice (in hours) or NHS 111 (out of hours).
