Can I phone the doctor?

To avoid interruptions for our patients during consultations, we do not encourage phone calls to the doctor. If you need to talk to your doctor, you can call and leave a message at the reception, and the doctor or practice nurse will return your call. If it is urgent, you will be connected to our practice nurse who will be able to assist you with your situation.

I have multiple health issues that I would like to discuss with the doctor.

That is absolutely fine with us. We pride ourselves on offering personalised care and support to all our patients. If you have multiple health issues to discuss, please be sure to mention it to our staff when you call to book an appointment. This way, we’ll be able to book you in as a long appointment, allocating you more time and ensuring the patient after you isn’t kept waiting for too long.

I’m going on holiday and I’m not sure which vaccinations I need.

Please book an appointment with us and our doctor will discuss your travel plans with you and provide you with a list of vaccinations you will need. Note: Don’t put off travel vaccinations till the last minute. Some of the vaccines need to be administered well in advance to the travel date in order to be effective.
