Home Visits

Home visits can be arranged for patients who are too ill to come to the surgery. A doctor can see about four patients in surgery in the time it takes to do one visit, so please always try to come to one of the surgeries.

If you feel you need a home visit, please try to telephone before 10:00 hrs, as this helps the doctors to plan their day. When you request a visit, the receptionist will ask for full details of the patient, name, address, age and possible telephone number, as well as the reason for the visit. This helps the doctor deal with urgent cases more promptly.
