We are currently in the process of changing our clinical computer system. During this transition, there will be a temporary period of system downtime. Please note that routine appointments cannot be booked at this time. However, we are continuing to provide urgent medical services throughout the changeover period. Should you require urgent medical assistance please telephone 07394916814

Treatment room changes

Due to the change in practice computer system, we will only be able to book appointments for URGENT TESTS in the treatment room from Thursday 29th May until Friday 13th June 2025. Routine tests will be bookable week commencing 16th June 2025. We thank you for your co-operation and understanding at this time.

Practice computer system

We wish to inform you of an important change at the practice. Our current clinical patient computer system supplier has gone into administration, and as a result, we are required to move to a new system. This change is essential to ensure we can continue providing a safe, effective, and reliable service. However, the transition will affect the availability of some services during June. The practice has not been given any extra resources to manage this major change. We are required to complete this additional work using existing resources. Full updates will be available under the New Computer System update tab at the top of the website
