Your appointment

When you ask for an appointment the Reception will ask for a reason. This is so our Team can book the correct appointment for you. For example if you have shoulder pain you may be able to see the First Contact Practitioner. Also some appointments need more time. Our Reception Team are bound by the same rules of confidentiality as the Clinicians.

Urgent Appointments

We offer urgent appointments each day for emergencies that cannot wait. You are not able to book these in advance.

Routine Appointments

We also offer routine appointments for non-urgent problems.

Please note if you have a dental problem please contact a Dentist. The Cheshire & Merseyside Urgent Dental Helpline is 0161 476 9651. They are open every day including weekends and bank holidays from 9.00am – 9.30pm.

Home Visits

The Home Visiting Teams are very busy and we ask that you attend surgery whenever possible.

If you are too unwell or too immobile to attend, please telephone 01270 780210 before 10:00 Monday to Friday.

Please let us know the nature of the problem so that the Doctor can understand the urgency of the request. Please also ensure we have your up-to-date contact details in case the Doctor wishes to speak with you.

If you have recently come out of hospital and need a nurse to visit you, the District Nurse Team will visit you.
