Home visits are reserved for patients who are too frail or ill to get to the surgery.

Only ask for a home visit if you really need one, as there are better facilities for examining and treating you at the surgery. 

For home visits, contact the surgery before 11.00am.  Requests for home visits after 11.00am should be for emergencies only. Be prepared to give our staff full details of your symptoms, as this will help the doctor assess the urgency of the visit. 

We will also need a contact number as the doctor may phone you back to establish the nature of the problem and to decide if you should attend the surgery.
