Wait well, stay well
If you, or someone you care for, is waiting for treatment or a procedure, we recognise that this is difficult, NHS staff are working hard to get everyone seen as quickly as possible. We are currently prioritising people with the highest clinical need, and who have been waiting the longest.
We understand the wait might be stressful, especially if your condition is causing you pain, or stopping you from carrying out day-to-day activities and that you may have concerns. That is why we have created this website.
From the first of November the NHS App is changing for the better now allowing you view your records and book appointments too. Plus much more.... Download the NHS app for Android and IOS.
Polio Immunisation Campaign
Immunisation is the best protection against this disease and the NHS is offering all children aged one to nine years the polio booster vaccine.
It is important for your family and community to immunise your children against preventable childhood illnesses such as measles, polio, meningitis and pneumonia.
National guidelines face covers from 19th July
Despite the relaxation of rules governing face coverings; national guidance still recommends face-masks in health care settings, and we will still require all patients attending the practice to wear a mask unless they are exempt on medical grounds until future notice. Thanks for continuing to help keep our staff and vulnerable patients safe.

Online Consult
We are pleased to be able to give our patients the choice of having an online consultation when it is helpful and convenient, but you can still ask for a face-to-face appointment in the normal way when you want to. Online consultations are not an emergency service. If it is a medical emergency call 999. This is when someone is seriously ill or injured and their life is at risk. If you are worried about an urgent medical concern, visit www.111.nhs.uk or call 111 to speak to a fully trained adviser. Online consultations give you a quick, convenient and secure alternative to visiting or phoning your GP surgery
