Please ring the surgery before 11.00am, if possible, if you consider you need a home visit. If you can, try to come to the surgery where better facilities are available for examination, investigation and treatment.
The doctor may telephone you to discuss the problem first, and assess the need for a visit.
The need for a visit will be made at the professional discretion of the Doctor.
If needed, home visits will be provided by the surgery, except during the out of hours periods, when it will be made by after consultation with NHS111.
