The surgery operates an appointment system whereby patients can make an appointment by telephoning the surgery on 01843 608860 or by calling into the surgery during opening times which are 8.00am to 6.30pm Monday to Friday.
There is a member of staff available to speak to via the telephone Monday to Friday 8.00am to 6.30pm.
Extended Hours (Mondays) 8.00am to 8.00pm and Tuesday and Thursday 7.30am to 8.00am Nurse only.
Appointments are usually for ten minutes unless it is for medical examinations or other longer procedures. Our appointment system allows for on the day booking (please telephone as close to 8.00am as possible). Routine appointments can be made in advance however the advanced appointments are limited and this may mean you have to wait longer for an appointment with the doctor. For urgent medical problems a doctor will always see you on the same day; however we are unable to offer you the doctor of your choice.
On normal working days reception is open from 8.00am to 6.30pm. During this time you are able to book appointments for any of our doctor or nurse clinics.
For the doctors' appointments you have the following options:
- Book on the day appointments are released at 8.00am Monday to Friday
- You may book an appointment from 4 weeks in advance.
- The GPs hold a proportion of appointments that maybe booked 48 hours in advance if they feel it is appropriate.
- Appointments are also offered for a telephone consultation with your doctor when a face to face consultation is not necessary (i.e. reporting back on an ongoing condition where examination is not necessary). If a telephone consultation is booked St Peters Surgery request that the patient phones the Surgery at the allocated time slot where your call will be put through to the GP.
