If you are unable to attend your appointment, please make sure to contact the surgery to cancel it. This allows us to offer the slot to another patient in need.

You can easily cancel your appointment via the NHS App or call the surgery on 0161 785 7910.

We understand it can sometimes be challenging to get a routine appointment with a GP or Nurse within your preferred time frame. Demand can be unpredictable, and missed appointments make it even harder for us to manage.

Thank you for helping us to keep the system running smoothly by cancelling any appointments you can’t attend.

⚠️Know your symptoms: Don't ignore a cough that lasts over 3 weeks.
Get tested early: Early diagnosis saves lives.
Follow your plan: Completing your treatment is key to a full recovery.
