Lunch-time Closing
The Practise has changed its opening hours !
Please note that from the 1st August this year we have introduced closing at lunchtime for 1 hour
This this change will bring us into line with other GP Surgeries and will allow us valuable time to keep up the demands from the Department of Health.

Automated Arrival
We have now installed an automated arrival system located on the right-hand wall as you enter the reception area.By using this you will be able to inform the Medical Staff of your arrival within the need to wait in a queue at the reception desk.

Home Visits
There are occasions when the elderly or housebound may need a home visit. Please try to phone the surgery before 10:30am. The receptionist will ask a few questions so that the doctors can judge the urgency of the call. A doctor will decide if a home visit is necessary.

Baby Clinic News
As from the May 2009, we are pleased to announce a change to our Baby Clinic, which we hope will provide a much better service. Due to the large numbers of patients attending, we have decided to make this an Assessment and Vaccination Clinic, by appointment only. You will still be able to see the Health Visitor for weighing and advice by arranging an appointment.
If your baby is sick please arrange an ordinary appointment with a GP, as sick babies can no longer be seen during the Baby Clinic.
