If
possible patients should make their way
to the Health Centre to see their GP or
Health Professional. This is because for
every home visits a GP or nurse makes they
could see several patients in the surgery.
In cases of severe illness, infirmity, or
emergencies, the GP or nurse will visit
the patient at home. If you have transport
problems consider contacting Good Neighbours.
If you are too ill to attend surgery
please telephone us before 10.00am if possible, as
rounds have to be planned. Please give our staff some
idea of your symptoms so we can judge the urgency
of the call. Each doctor visits their own patients,
but on occasion it may be necessary for one of the
other doctors to visit you. The doctor may phone before
visiting to assess the urgency of the visit.
