ASKMYGP Online Service - Patient Information
To allow our team to safely deal with online requests, we ask that patients submit requests between 08.00AM - 10.30AM. This allows GPs to allocate appropriate appointments as early as possible.
Due to ongoing limited capacity, it is vital we identify patients who need on the day review.
Requests are triaged by our Duty Doctor. The Duty Doctor will assess urgent clinical requests. For all other requests a suitable appointment will be arranged. Please give as much information as possible when submitting your request.

CARERS INFORMATION
Do you look after someone?
Carers provide unpaid care by looking after an ill, frail or disabled family member, friend or partner. Being aware of your caring responsibilities helps us to provide a better service to you as a patient and to the person you care for.
If you are providing unpaid care (whether or not the person you care for is a patient in this practice) please let us know.
If you would like to tell us you are a carer, or require referral to a local Carers Network, please contact the Practice for further advice or visit the Carers link below
