Home visits
If you are housebound and need an appointment, we will do a home visit. We will phone you first to understand what you need.
Requests for home visits should be made by 11.00am if possible, to enable the doctors to plan their time efficiently.
Please give brief details about your illness to the receptionist, who will pass the message to the doctor, who will visit you at home if you are considered too ill to come to the surgery, but remember urgent cases can be seen sooner at the surgery.
