We remain closed today as it is Easter Weekend.
We reopen tomorrow at 8am.

Please remember our new appointment system allows pre-booking of appointments for up to 7 days in advance.

We will continue to have some same day slots available until we get established in the new system and these will reduce.

We continue to see Clinically Urgent Same Day cases and these are assessed by the on call GP and if suitable given an appointment that same day.

These changes are in line with the new GP Contract that has come in from 1st April that all practices have to follow.

Thank you for all the nice comments over the last week on our new system. We will continue to listen and improve as best we can within our contract and staffing.

NHS bowel cancer screening kits are offered to everyone aged between 50 and 74.

They can help find cancer early, before you even have any symptoms. And the earlier cancer is found, the easier it can be to treat.

When your kit arrives, put it by the loo. Don’t put it off.

Let someone else know they should send their kit back – especially as April is Bowel Cancer Awareness month.

More info: https://www.nhs.uk/tests-and-treatments/bowel-cancer-screening/

In surgery we get notifications to say kits haven’t been returned and we will be sending out reminders. Please don’t put it off.

04/04/2026

When the surgery is closed please access help from either local pharmacies, the Urgent Care Centre at James Cook, Redcar or North Tees or contact 111 please only access A&E if it’s absolutely necessary.

We have set our rota system to have appointments released at 7, 5, 3 and 1 day intervals we still plan to have same day appointments available but we will start to reduce the number of these available as our new appointment system gets established.

With the new changes into the GP contract starting from today our Reception Team have been on some advanced training in Care Navigation and you will notice that we ask a series of questions when booking in for an appointment.

You do not always need to be assessed by the GP. We have additional services offered by our Primary Care Network to ensure you are seen by the most appropriate clinician.

Here at the practice we have a number of medical students also so at times we will waver our navigation to ensure that the students get to see a range of conditions. The majority of the time we will be strict with our navigation of your care and refusals to access a service will result in no appointment been made.

🔴 Pharmacy First - the majority of local pharmacies now treat the 7 common conditions, our staff will refer you and then you can either present at the pharmacy or ring for an appointment, we are asking people to choose the appointment route to try and support our pharmacy teams with demand.
🟠 Pharmacy Minor Aliments - similar to above however there are a wider range of conditions that the pharmacy team can advise and prescribe for you without the need for seeing a GP
🟡 FCP - First Contact Practitioner - for any joint/muscle pain, back, neck, shoulder, knee problems - both staff can refer on for scans etc if needed
🔵 Children/Young Person Mental Health Team - for support with behavioural, sleeping, bed wetting, social interactions, anxiety etc 5-17 years
⚫️ Extended GP Access clinics include GP, ANP, Nurse and HCA appointments from 6-9pm for patients who may need appointments out of office hours.
⚪️ Eye casualty - for any traumas to the eyes please refer to James Cook University Hospital.

Thank you for always supporting our staff. I would like to reiterate that our reception team work from the guidance of both our GP partners and do not make medical decisions, we take information and triage to the correct place for the problem. If in doubt they ALWAYS consult one of the senior teams. The triage information we have is very strict and they do not work outside of this.

Your pharmacist can provide treatment or some prescription medicine, if needed, for seven common conditions - without you seeing a GP.

Think pharmacy first and get seen by your local community pharmacy team. Staff at Reception are trained to ensure you are referred to pharmacy teams correctly. We have referral criteria available in order to ensure we do not send you there unnecessarily. Staff will send off a referral directly to your chosen pharmacy to ensure you are seen by the correct member of the team.

🔹🔷Prostate Cancer Awareness🔷🔹

Resharing a news update from the Northern Cancer Alliance that we would like to share with you all.

What is Prostate Cancer?

The prostate gland lies just below the bladder. It helps to produce healthy s***m. Problems in the prostate can affect how you urinate and your sexual function. Prostate cancer is caused when cells in the prostate start to grow out of control.

Most early stage prostate cancers do not have any symptoms, if you notice anything that is not normal for you or you are worried, you should speak to the GP. Slow growing cancers are common and it may not cause symptoms that’s shorten your life.
You are at higher risk of prostate cancer if you:
🔴are aged over 50
🟠have a close relative, eg brother, father, who has prostate cancer
🟡are of Black ethnic origin

What is a Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) level?

PSA is a protein that is made by the prostate cells. We measure this by using a blood test. Most men will not have a raised PSA level, but a raised level can be caused by a number of conditions such as a urinary infection, an enlarged prostate, prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate) or prostate cancer. It is not the prefect test.

Should I have a PSA test?

Before you decide whether to have the test think about the possible advantages and disadvantages. Speak to your GP and your own risk of prostate cancer. Having this test is a personal decision - what may be important to one person is not to another and having the test may not be the right thing for you.

Possible advantages:
🔴The test MAY pick up prostate cancer before you have any symptoms.
🟠The test can help pick up fast-growing cancer at an early stage, when treatment could stop it spreading and causing problems or shortening your life.
Possible disadvantages
🔴You may have a raised level, without cancer. Many individuals with a raised PSA do not have prostate cancer and may be offered invasive treatment that is not required, such as biopsies, these alone can cause side effects such as pain, infection and bleeding.
🟠The test can also miss prostate cancer, around 15% of patients tested with prostate cancer had a normal PSA level. (CRUK 2024)

For a more detailed version of this above please contact reception and we can make a copy available for you to collect.
