Your telephone numbers

Please could you let us know your phone/mobile number.  It is very important that we have this information in order for us to contact you if necessary.  Some of  the information we have is out of date.

Cancelling your Appointment
If you are unable to attend an appointment with one of the doctors or nurses, please telephone or use the link at the bottom of this page to cancel your appointment.

We are constantly monitoring non attenders, and there has been an increase in the number of patients failing to attend.  If you fail to attend without informing us we will write to you.  If you repeatedly fail to attend for appointments you may be removed from the practice list and will have to find an alternative GP.

You can now order your repeat prescriptions on line.  Simply go to the prescriptions page and enter your information.  Please remember to allow 24 hours for your prescription to be be prepared.  If you wish to collect your prescription from a chemist please ask the chemist to pick your prescription up from the surgery for you.
