TEXT SERVICE

The practice has recently commenced a new text reminder service. Patients should receive a reminder for their upcoming appointment at the practice.  

Any patients failing to cancel or failing to attend a booked appointment will also receive a message.

We hope this will reduce the number of wasted appointments and further improve availability.

Please update your contact details when you attend the surgery to facilitate the service

PRESCRIPTION ORDERING ONLINE

We now offer a secure online service which can be used to order prescriptions.

Firstly you need to attend the surgery to register for this service and complete a form at reception.

You will then need to visit the Patient Services website to complete the process.

You can still order by email if you prefer though this maybe phased out in time.
