If you are registered with our GP surgery, you can access some health services online. This means you can do some tasks when it is better for you and avoid telephoning the practice. 

You can do things like:

  • Order repeat prescriptions
  • See parts of your health record, including information about medicines, vaccinations and test results
  • See communications between your GP surgery and other services, such as hospitals
  • Book, check or cancel appointments with a GP, nurse or other healthcare professional
  • Send us a query or request a sick note

Below are some of the main online services we use in our GP surgery:
