Alert: New Appointment System Coming Soon

We have been listening to you and difficulty getting access to appointments is frustrating to you as patients and us.
We will soon be introducing a fairer way to contact the practice. Your appointment will be based on your symptoms and clinical need and NOT because you were 1st in the phone queue at 8am……..Coming Mid September......
