If you need help with your appointment

Home visits

If you are housebound and need an appointment, we will do a home visit. We will phone you first to understand what you need.

If you require a home visit please call as soon after 8 as possible and before 11.00am for a same day visit

Our GP Practice is keen to ensure that we make the best use of our clinical staff, allowing them to provide the most appropriate care to those most in need of it. For the vast majority of patients, attending an appointment at the Practice is the best option for them and for the Practice staff. 

You may think that a home visit by a family doctor (GP) is best for patient care. However, while home visits are convenient for the patient, they actually offer a poorer standard of care compared to surgery consultations.
