Home visits are reserved for patients who are housebound or too ill to come to the health centre. Do make every effort to come to the surgery as we have better facilities for examinations and treatment and you will be seen, if urgent, on arrival.
If you require a visit please contact the surgery between 9am and 11am. This is so our visiting round for the day can be planned effectively.
Please be prepared to give some details to the receptionist. The doctor may wish to speak to you to assess the urgency of the visit.
At home the doctor will only have limited equipment and it is often difficult to perform a full assessment of your symptoms.
It is therefore essential that if it is at all possible that you attend the Surgery to see the doctor.
