Important Patient Update – Changes from 1st October 2025
From 1st October 2025, all GP practices in the UK must follow new requirements set out in the GP contract. We are required to make changes to the way our booking system currently operates. We are currently working on implementing a system, in the interim you can contact us in the following ways:
- Call or visit us
- Visit our website and use the Online Patient Consultation Form during our core opening hours for routine requests only.
- Book an “e-consult” which is available Monday - Thursday from 18:30 to 21:00, and on a Sunday from 16:30 - 21:00.Please note: Due to capacity the E-Consult service has a restricted Cap https://thenuffieldpractice.webgp.com/
If you need more urgent help please call, or if we are closed please call 111 or in an emergency call 999.
- If you cannot access the form online, our reception team will still be available by phone to help guide you through completing online form.
- Please note, there are no changes to booking appointments with our Practice Nurses, wound care, vaccinations, chronic disease reviews (diabetes, asthma, COPD).
When you have a medical emergency call 999. If you don't have a medical emergency but the surgery is closed and you are unable to wait until it is open again, call 111.
If you need a translator, we can provide this via Language Line. Just let reception know your preferred language.
