It is very important to begin this process well in advance of your holiday. If you require holiday vaccinations, a travel risk assessment form must be completed one month in advance of your appointment. You will be advised of the necessary vaccinations you require and be issued with either an NHS or private prescription (the latter will involve a payment payable prior to picking up your prescriptions).
The practice has an approved boundary and it is therefore important that we have your up-to-date address details with us at all times. Should you move to another address outside our boundary you will need to register with a new doctor in that area. Once the Business Service Organisation is made aware of your new address they will remove you from our list.
Surgeries are held each weekday by appointment from 8.30am to 10.30am and 2.00pm to 5.00pm except Wednesday afternoon, when arrangements are made by telephoning the practice for further instructions and the telephone number of the doctor providing emergency cover.

Patients will not be registered with an individual doctor, but with the partnership. Nevertheless, all patients have the right to see the doctor of their choice where possible and provided that doctor routinely offers the services they wish to avail of. Where a doctor does not provide that particular service, patients will be offered the opportunity to consult with another doctor who provides the service within the partnership.
