Home Visits
Please be aware that our GPs will always call to assess the home visit request first.
If you need a home visit, you can help us by calling reception.
Telephone: 01227 931999
House visits are only available for patients that are confined to home.
Please remember that several patients can be seen in the practice in the time that it takes to make one home visit. There are also better facilities for examining and treating patients at the Health Centre.

Out of Hours
Enhanced Access
We have evening appointments on Mondays for patients who find it difficult to come in during the day.
- Monday: 6:30pm to 8pm
Patients will be required to go to straight to waiting area B as reception will be closed after 6:30pm.
Ask at reception if you require further information.
Life Threatening
Call 999 or go to A&E now if:
- you or someone you know needs immediate help
- you have seriously harmed yourself - for example, by taking a drug overdose
A mental health emergency should be taken as seriously as a medical emergency.
Urgent But Not Life Threatening
Visit an urgent care centre if:
- You have an urgent medical issue requiring on the day attention
Non-urgent
Use NHS 111 if:
- You need help now, but it's not an emergency
There will be someone to provide you with advice and to direct you to a clinician if it is necessary.
