how to request a home visit
Home visits are at the
discretion of the doctors. When the
condition of the patient suggests
that a home visit may be required
please contact the surgery
before 11.30am where possible, on telephone
number 0844 477 2497. Home visits
are for people who are genuinely too
ill to visit the surgery. A rash or
a temperature does not prevent
patients coming to the surgery and
will not endanger others. In the
time it takes a doctor to do a
single house call, four patients can
be seen in surgery, which is also
well-staffed and better equipped.
The receptionist will ask you what
the problem is, as this helps the
doctors to prioritise calls. You
will also be asked for a telephone
number at which you can be contacted
as a doctor may call you back.
