If, for medical reasons, you are unable to get to the surgery, please call between 8.30 and 10.30am for a visit. Calls after this time usually disrupt other patients' appointments and should only be made in an emergency. Children can nearly always be wrapped up and brought to the surgery where there are better facilities for diagnosis and treatment. If you are uncertain whether you need a visit, the doctor will be happy to advise you on the telephone.
