Home Visits
To request a home visit contact the surgery before 10.30am. Your request will be assessed to see whether appropriate.
Remember that we can see several patients at the practice in the time it takes for one home visit. Patients should have their appointment at the surgery if they can.
Lack of transport is not a reason to request a home visit.
