Availability of Doctors

Due to outside commitments such as the requirement to undertake continuous professional development, be involved in NHS project meetings and citations to attend court hearings, etc, doctors may be absent from the practice, often at short notice. Locums are sometimes employed in the practice to cover these periods.

Doctors In Training

We are recognised as a training practice to teach doctors the skills of General practice. These doctors are fully qualified and have usually worked in hospitals for at least three years. We are also a recognised teaching practice for Medical Students.

As part of the training we sometimes make video recordings of the consultation for discussion with small groups of doctors only. Your consent would always be asked for before any such recordings were made and you would be able to withdraw consent at the end of the consultation if you changed your mind. If you feel uncomfortable about video recordings please let us know before the consultation. It will not affect the consultation.

We are grateful for your co-operation in the important work of teaching future GPs.

Administrative Staff

The practice manager is responsible for the day to day administration and management of the practice. We have an Office Supervisor heading up the team of receptionists who are here to assist you. Anything you tell them will be treated in the strictest confidence.

Behind the scenes we have a large team who are dealing directly with letters, test results, appointments, insurance papers, etc. You can speak directly with a member of our administration team if you feel this is appropriate.

We have a Pharmacy team attached to the practice who can help you with any queries you have about your medication. This includes any queries about repeat prescriptions. The Pharmacy team can arrange appointments with patients to discuss their medication and may be able to help with changes to medication, for example, when someone has been in hospital.

It takes 48 hours to process a prescription if handed into the Practice and 72 hours if handed into a local chemist.

We are not a dispensing practice and, therefore, do not dispense medication on the premises.
