Appointments

Advance Appointments
To book an advance appointment with a clinician, please ring the surgery on 0114 3054600 or visit the reception desk.
Same Day Appointments
To book an appointment on the same day with a GP/Nurse, please ring the surgery on 0114 3054600 or visit the reception desk at 8am. If you ring on the day and all the appointments have been taken you may be offered a call back by a GP/nurse to assess your urgency.
If you wish to be seen by a specific Doctor or Nurse please ask reception at the point of making the appointment. We will try to meet your needs but this cannot be guaranteed.
We recognise that sometimes getting an appointment may not be easy, but we offer various alternatives, such as a mixture of pre-bookable and same day appointments with GPs, Nurses and Healthcare Assistants as well as access to Midwives, Health Visitors, Counsellors, Smoking Cessation Workers and Pharmacist.
When phoning in you will be asked for the reason for your request, this will be so we can assign the best appointment for you. Did you know that your local chemist can now handle many minor ailments? If you do not pay for your medication, this can be extended to the chemist on prescription items. Further details can be found under the section relating to the “Pharmacy Scheme”.
We always try and place you with the doctor of your choice but that may not always be possible. Please note all doctors and locums have full access to your full record.
Interpreters
If you require an interpreter, please ask at the time of booking.
Missed Appointments
When patients fail to attend a pre-booked appointment it prevents someone else being seen. If patients frequently fail to turn up or give enough cancellation notice (24 hours) they may be asked to register elsewhere.
