2. Via a Receptionist
You can either telephone the receptionist or make the appointment in person at the surgery.
Auto-Arrival System
We have an auto-arrival system so that you can let the doctor or nurse you are seeing know that you have arrived for your appointment. This means that you do not need to queue at reception. The system is a touch-screen device that is linked to our computer system. There are on-screen instructions in many languages. It will also tell you which room your appointment is in and give you an idea of the wait for your appointment. It may appear to be switched off, when it goes into sleep mode to save electricity. Touch the screen to wake it up. There is a bottle of alcohol wipe to use to avoid spreading bugs via the touch screen.
Walk-in Patients
Unfortunately we do not have the capacity to deal with walk-in patients. Please call to make an appointment to be seen, especially if it is for an emergency or urgent problem. If you do walk in, you will be asked to make an appointment in the usual way.
