Do I need to see a Doctor or a Nurse?

A doctor appointment is a valuable resource and we want to try and utilise these for the patients who need them the most. We ask that patients carefully consider 'do I need to see a doctor for this?' At the practice we have one highly skilled advanced nurse practitioner, two practice nurses and a health care assistant who are all able to help with many routine matters especially those related to long term conditions such as Asthma, COPD, Diabetes, Heart Disease and many more. All of our clinicians have special interests and you will find that for your long term conditions such as Asthma, COPD, Diabetes and Heart Disease that it is the nurses that will specialise in these areas and help you manage these conditions. The practice admin team are available to help with queries related to hospital referrals and prescriptions. For your test results we ask that you call the surgery after 2pm. Our practice website has further information on General Health Advice and Common Medical Conditions.

Your local pharmacist can help with self-help, common conditions, your medication and long term medical conditions and are available with more detailed advice. 
Patients can now get treatment for seven common conditions directly from their local pharmacy. This includes prescription-only medicines, including antibiotics and antivirals where clinically appropriate, to treat seven common health conditions without the need to visit a GP.
