Arrange a GP home visit

Home visits are for patients who are too ill or infirm to come to the surgery. If you need the doctor to visit you at home please telephone the surgery on 01823 259333 before 10:30am and give the receptionist as much information as you can to help the doctor assess the urgency of the visit.

If you are able to come to the surgery, then we would appreciate it if you could book an appointment. This is because home visits can take up to six times longer than an in-person surgery visit, so it helps the GP to see more patients if you can try to come to the surgery.

You can also bring your children into the surgery if they have a high temperature.
