This surgery is extremely busy because of the high demand for appointments. We cannot continue to provide General Medical Services to clients who continually misuse the services.

Patients will be sent out written warnings if they miss their appointment with the doctor.

If a patient misses three appointments within a 12-month period, without a valid reason, they will be sent out a letter of removal from the practice.

Could you please cancel appointments at least three hours before your appointment time if you are unable to attend.

All appointments will be marked as ‘did not attend’ if we have not been given up to three hours’ notice.

If you need medical help when we are closed, use NHS 111 online or call 111.
