If you think you may have difficulty with an online consultation don’t worry, our reception team are happy to assist you or will happily complete the process on your behalf over the phone. 

Our GPs will review the consultation and you will be contacted by the end of the next working day, if not sooner. Either by email (don’t forget to check your junk email folder), or by phone as appropriate to your consultation.

Please be reassured that patients needing to be examined will be invited to the medical centre.
