Important news: We constantly keep our service provision under review.  Now that we are operating a telephone triage appointment system for all GP appointments our daily GP advice line offering telephone access to a member of our GP team is obselete and will run for the last time on Friday 4th June.  All callers after this date will be offered a booked telephone consultation with one of our GPs as an alternative.

The symptom assessment will ask you a number of questions to help to identify your problem.

The outcome of your assessment will direct you to the right treatment, whether emergency care, your GP, nurse or self-care.

If your outcome indicates that an appointment is required at your GP Practice, you simply click on the "request an appointment" button.

Once the request has been submitted, you will then be contacted by the Practice Team, to arrange an appointment within the identified timeframe (as outlined in the outcome of your symptom checker).

The information you provide will be shared with our clinical team (where appropriate) and will assist in providing robust information of your problem to the required clinical team member prior to your appointment.
