AT
THE SURGERY
All the doctors have their own and differing times but are generally available
during the following times....
You
have the right to express a preference of practitioner but, whilst we will endeavour
to comply with your request, this may not always be possible. Should this, on
any occasion, not be possible an explanation will be offered.
Consultations
We will provide a consultation, without
prejudice and on request, to any registered patient between the age of 16 and
74 who has not attended the surgery in the preceding three years and also to any
registered patient aged 75 or over who has not attended the surgery in the preceding
12 months.
Out Of Hours
Telephone 01489 575191
When the surgery is closed a recorded message will give you a telephone number to phone in order to notify the duty doctor. Night and weekend calls are dealt with by a deputising service.
The doctor on duty can give you advice and will visit you, if necessary.
PLEASE DO NOT CALL UNLESS YOUR PROBLEM CANNOT WAIT UNTIL NORMAL HOURS.
