We provide a home visiting service for patients who are unable to, or too ill to leave their homes. If you feel too ill to make an appointment to come to the surgery, please telephone 0300 790 6288 as early as possible after 8:00am and preferably before 10:00am as this is the main time when doctors assess the urgency of the home visit requests and plan their route accordingly.
Please give details of the reason for home visit request clearly to our receptionist together with a contact telephone number. These details are very important as it assists the doctors to plan their visits. If the visiting doctor is concerned, he/she may call you first.
We will make every effort to attend urgent home visits at other times throughout the day, so please phone to speak to the duty doctor for advice.
