On arrival at the surgery for your appointment why not book in using our new automated arrivals flat screen to the left of the main entrance. This will notify staff of your arrival, tell you approximate waiting times and avoid queues at reception.

Arriving late for your appointment. This of course does happen to us all as much as we try to be ontime.  The computer arrivals screen is configured so that anyone arriving 10 or more minutes late are informed to go to the reception area to book in.  Here they will be informed of the surgery policy
