Noticeboard

Please provide the practice with your most up to date mobile phone number. We plan to use this to send you appointments reminders and provide you with health information, including sending results by text. We need your consent to do this. When you are next at the surgery please advise reception if you are happy for this to take place. Please note, it is your responsibility to let the practice know if you change any of your contact details.

Access

There are two different Practices in the building and there is access, by ramp, to both East (Featherhall Avenue) and West (Ladywell Road) entrances of the Medical Centre, with a disabled toilet at each end.

Consultation numbers and Did Not Attend (DNA) information

In the 20 working days of December 2019 the GPs and Nurses provided 3402 consultations to patients. The GPs also did 264 home visits and 892 triage calls.

142 patients did not attend for their appointment which means that 95.8% of patients attended for their booked appointment. Thank you to all patients who attended and those who cancelled their appointment allowing it to be used by another patient.

Online Services

There are two separate ways you can conduct online services. Via this website you can:

order repeat or acute (special request) prescriptions
cancel appointments
update your contact details

Our new Patient Online Services (www.patient-services.co.uk) allows you to:

renew or order repeat prescriptions
view booked appointments
cancel booked appointments

To register for Patient Online Services please see information in the Clinics and Services section.

You can still contact the practice by phone or in person, this is just another option, which other patients have found is more convenient and saves them time.
