Appointments
Request an appointment
Before you contact us, please consider whether Self Help and Support or other options, such as Pharmacy First treatment, the Minor Eye Conditions Service or self-referral for Physiotherapy, are more suitable for your needs.
The online form is only open for appointment requests between 8am and 1pm in order for the Duty Doctor to safely triage and respond to patients. If you have an urgent query after this time please call the reception team on 01223697600.
If you think that you are likely to require an urgent appointment on the same day that you are contacting us, we would ask that you submit the online form in the morning, as soon as possible after it opens at 8am.
