📢 Important Update to How You Book Appointments Online

To help us make sure you see the right clinician, at the right time, for the right reason, we’re making a positive change to how appointments are booked.

From Monday 23rd February, patients will no longer be able to book appointments directly through the NHS App or SystmOnline.

✨ What’s changing? ✨
Instead, you’ll simply send us a request through our surgery website. Our reception team will then review your request and send you a direct booking link for the most appropriate appointment giving you a choice of days and times to book.

✅ This means:
• You’ll be booked with the right clinician for your needs
• Fewer appointments will be booked incorrectly
• More appointments will be available overall
• We can offer a wider range of suitable appointments for you to book directly

Our reception team is always here to help if you need support with the new process 💙

Thank you for your understanding as we continue improving our service for all patients.

From October to March we can’t make enough vitamin D from sunlight, so to keep bones and muscles healthy, it’s best to take a daily 10 microgram supplement of vitamin D. You can get vitamin D from most pharmacies and retailers.
