Notice to patients

This is a gentle reminder to be kind to our practice team.  We too are stressed and uncertain about the weeks and months ahead.  We do understand that everyone's anxiety and worry manifests itself in different ways but we will not tolerate any aggression, anger or abuse and it is unfortunate that we have seen an increase in this kind of behaviour from some of our patients.  We are doing the best we can in incredibly challenging circumstances.  

Get Well, Keep Well

Of course we’re not just here for when you are unwell. Our team of healthcare professionals and back-up staff offer a number of clinics and services to promote good health and wellbeing whatever your medical condition.

Join In

We hope you enjoy having a look around the site and familiarizing yourself with some of the online features such as ordering a repeat prescription. Whatever your thoughts, be sure to let us know via our feedback function. Comments and suggestions are always a great way of helping us continue to enhance the way we look after you.

Both our surgeries offer full disabled access. There is also ample car parking at both surgeries.
