For Medical Appointments:

• Submit a Medical Issue Request online via Accurx from 7:30am to 4:30pm each working day.

• Use the medical request online form to request an appointment. The Triage GP will triage your request and will be in touch. Please add as much detail to your request as possible.

•  Your request will be triaged appropriately. We may book you an appointment, or signpost you to a more suitable service.

• You may also be offered an appointment with our enhanced hours team. This will be an evening or weekend appointment.

Admin Requests:

• Select the admin query section and submit your request.

• The Practice Team will review your request and contact you with the outcome.

• Please do not submit urgent medical requests through the admin query option

We will offer you the most appropriate type of appointment dependent on your request. This may be:

• By phone

• Face to face at the surgery

• On a video call

• By text or email

While patients may prefer a certain type of consultation, this may not always be suitable.

Please give us as much information as possible when submitting your request. This allows us to triage your request, and book the correct appointment.

We are now open Tuesday evening, Friday evening and every fourth Saturday in the month. This is part of the Government’s plans to improve healthcare. 

This service will be for routine medical conditions and is not an emergency service. Not every issue is suitable to for an enhanced hours appointment. Our reception team are trained to know what they can book in to this service.

GP appointments, Nurse reviews, smear and blood tests are available in this service. There are appointments at The Park Medical Centre, as well as other local GP surgeries.

This service is available to all registered patients.

If you become unwell after 6:00pm please call NHS 111, or go to a&e in an emergency.
