Noticeboard

Out of Hours
Your call will be answered by our medical answering service. They will contact the doctor on duty

Test Results
In order to avoid blocking the line at busy times, we would ask you to ring for test results in the afternoon on 841894. The doctor will have left a message for you.

Home Visits
If a visit is required, please try and phone early in the day. The doctor may telephone before visiting. Home visits are available for those conditions that make it unreasonably difficult to get to the Surgery.

Swine Flu

If you suspect you have swine flu you should go online at www.direct.gov.uk/pandemicflu or call the Treatment Line on 0800 1 513 100.  Textphone is available on 0800 1 513 200.  You will be taken through a list of basic questions about your symptoms and medical history and will be asked to confirm your date of birth, name, address and postcode.

If you are confirmed as having swine flu you will be given a unique access number and told where your nearest antiviral collection point is.  You should then ask a flu friend to go and collect the antivirals.

If you suspect you have swine flu you must not go to your GP or Accident & Emergency.

You should contact the doctor rather than the Flu Service if:

you have a serious underlying illness

You are pregnant

You have a sick child under one year of age

Your condition suddenly gets worse or if your condition is still getting worse after 7 days (5 days for a child)
