Face-to-Face Appointments

Face-to-face appointments, when patients meet with a doctor to discuss their medical needs, are the bread and butter of general practice. Standard appointments are ten minutes long, but may be longer if the doctor feels it is appropriate. Please call the practice or log in to an online services platform to book an appointment.

We offer two types of face-to-face appointment:

  • Routine appointments which are booked in advance for non-urgent medical needs
  • Acute appointments which can only be booked on the day. You should not book one of these unless your medical needs must be attended to the very same day.
