| Appointments: |
|
The
doctors work in medical partnership. You may see the doctor or nurse
of your choice if you book an appointment in advance. Appointments
can be made in person or by telephone, during surgery opening hours. |
If
you are unable to keep an appointment, please let us know so that
someone else can take advantage of your cancellation. |
From
time to time the partners will employ locum doctors to cover periods
of absence. |

telephone 01228 710451 between 8.00am and 6.30pm for an appointment
or to arrange to speak to a GP. |
