Appointments
Please call us on 028-23456 to make an appointment. We provide a full range of GP consultations for general medical problems, acute issues, and chronic medical conditions. All appointments are by prior booking only.
Practice Nurses
In a number of cases it might be worth considering a visit with a practice nurse rather than a doctor. Our practice nurses are qualified to deal with many conditions. It is not necessary to book a nurse appointment.
Cancellations
If you cannot attend an appointment for any reason please inform us as soon as possible in order for us to give the slot to someone else.
Home Visits
Whilst we encourage our patients to come to the surgery, where we have the proper equipment and facilities available, we do appreciate this is not always possible. In this respect, if you do need a home visit, you can help us by calling reception as early as possible You may only request a home visit if you are housebound or are too ill to visit the practice. Your GP will only visit you at home if they think that your medical condition requires it and will also decide how urgently a visit is needed. Please bear this in mind and be prepared to provide suitable details to enable the doctor to schedule house calls.

Repeat Prescriptions
We require that you order your repeat prescription at least 24 hours in advance - weekdays only. Your prescriptions will be sent directly to your chosen pharmacy for collection.
You will need to have seen your GP within the last six months, in order for us to issue a repeat prescription.
