Using this website

The medical information on this website, and on any sites linked to from this website, gives general advice only and SHOULD NOT be used as a substitute for the personal advice patients receive when consulting a GP.

Violent or abusive behaviour

We take seriously any threatening, abusive or violent behaviour against any of our staff or patients. If a patient is violent or abusive, they will be warned to stop their behaviour. If they persist, we may exercise our right to take action to have them removed, immediately if necessary, from our list of patients.

Disabled Access

The surgery has a ramp and the front doors of the surgery, pharmacy and those to the waiting room open automatically.

The consulting rooms are entirely on ground floor level and there is a toilet for the disabled. Aids are available for hard of hearing.

Medical Education

The practice is actively involved in teaching both qualified doctors and senior medical students gaining experience in general practice.

We may have a GP Registrar who spends between 6 and 12 months in our practice.

If you would prefer to consult your doctor alone, please let us know and we will be happy to respect your wishes.
