To maintain continuity of care it is sometimes best to consult the same doctor but this may not always be possible. If you would like to see a particular doctor then please inform a receptionist and we will do our best to accommodate you wherever we can.
If more than one member of your family wishes to be seen, please make a separate appointment for each of them.
Children under 16 should be accompanied by an adult.
In addition to our main site, we have a branch surgery that is situated at 144 Hempstead Road. Patients can be seen at either surgery and wherever possible we will try and accommodate you at your preferred site.
Of course, if you require a prompt appointment we may offer you an appointment with the doctor at either site.

If possible try to get to the surgery as we are able to offer more comprehensive care here.
If you do need a visit please try to make the request by 10.00am. A doctor will discuss the problem with you before deciding if a home visit is necessary. Please note, that a lack of transport is not an accepted reason for a home visit.
