Clinic Update

We are no longer able to offer walk in clinics at the practice.  If you need to see or speak to a GP, please use our E-consult service or call 01429 222170. 

When calling, our reception team will take your details and have been asked by our GPs to gather some information about your condition, this is to ensure that they can direct you to the most appropriate clinician and/or service and be seen as soon as possible.

If you have any symptoms associated with coronavirus, including a new continuous cough, a high temperature or a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste, you are advised to stay at home for 7 days.

Patient Participation Group

We are keen to resume our Patient Participation Group Meetings  and would love you to join us. Please speak to a member of our reception team if you would like to become a member of our Patient Participation Group.

Great North Care Record

Recently there has been a change in how patient information is accessed and shared within the NHS. When patients attend out of ours services, emergency departments or mental health services, they will be asked to provide consent for healthcare professionals to view their notes. Every patient in the UK has been automatically signed up to this scheme and every person has to the option to opt out if they wish. 

Please see the attached document for more information and how this change will benefit patients
