National EMIS outage

Due to a national outage, we currently do not have access to our clinical systems. We are therefore unable to call any routine appointments today. We apologise for any difficulties this may cause.

Telephone Changes

On Tuesday 4th June, we successfully changed telephone providers and can now offer patients a feature that offers you a virtual queue.  This clever feature allows you to call the practice and rather than staying on the phone until your call is answered, you can now stay in the virtual queue.  Once your call reaches the first position, we will call you back.

There is a lengthy, informative message on our telephones, asking patients to use our online form where possible. If you have already heard this message, you can dial any number on your keypad to bypass it.

We have simplified the way you contact us

We are pleased to announce that we now have a simple form for patients to complete when you wish to contact us. The same questions will be asked by our reception team and processed in the order we receive your request.  Calling the surgery will not provide you with priority.

You can contact us online between 7am-12pm Monday to Friday for any medical queries.  

If you do not have access to the internet, or need to contact us after 12pm with an urgent medical concern, please call the surgery.

The way we triage appointments is changing

Please note that from Tuesday 20th September we will be triaging appointment requests each day for 5 hours from 7am to 12pm. All requests should be made through eConsult unless you have a particular difficulty in completing online forms or no access to a smart phone or computer. All requests should receive a response by 2pm although most will be responded to within an hour or two of submission. After midday patients will be asked to submit any new requests the following morning via eConsult. Only very urgent requests will be dealt with over the phone if you contact us outside of these hours. 

Please note that admin and prescription requests will be available via eConsult throughout the day

Over the next 4 weeks we will be making more changes, in particular to the form that you are required to complete. We anticipate that this will  greatly simplify the process.

Data Sharing Opt Out

The data held in your GP medical records is shared with other healthcare professionals for the purposes of your individual care. It is also shared with other organisations to support health and care planning and research.

If you do not want your personally identifiable patient data to be shared outside of your GP practice for purposes except your own care, you can register an opt-out using the link below. This is known as a Type 1 Opt-out. You must register for this by the September as data extraction will begin shortly after.

Type 1 Opt-outs may be discontinued in the future. If this happens then they may be turned into a National Data Opt-out. We will tell you if this is going to happen and if you need to do anything. More information about the National Data Opt-out is here: https://www.nhs.uk/your-nhs-data-matters/

We have created a covid-19 information page with frequently asked questions following an unprecedented number of calls to the practice.  We respectfully ask you not to contact us as this is putting an unnecessary strain on our admin team and instead look at our Frequently Asked Questions section.
