Our Online Services

Access to GP Online Services

Wherever possible, please use our online options to access our services.  Doing so will assist us by keeping our phone lines free for those who need urgent medical help or cannot access online sources of information. 

GP online services are designed to give you, the patient more choice and flexibility in how and when you contact and interact with us.  They can also give you direct access to your medical records and test results, which was previously only possible by phoning or visiting the surgery.
