Appointment information
How to book an appointment:
To allow us to see and deal with patients in the most appropriate time frames, we are now using the Kingthorne total triage system for appointments at the practice.
All request for appointments are now triaged by the duty clinician for the day. The care navigation team will ask for details regarding the problem you're calling in with and this will be sent to the duty clinician to review. Once reviewed it will be passed back to the care navigation team to pass on advice or to book an appointment within the timescale set by the duty clinician. For routine appointments you may be sent a booking link to make the appointment yourself.
To save time why not use our accuRx online booking request rather than queue on the telephone - https://accurx.nhs.uk/patient-initiated/c86017
The same process will be followed if you come to the front desk asking for an appointment, or submit a request online
Appointments
With our new total triage system the amount of appointment available directly online will be reduced as we move to sending out booking links for specific appointment types.
When booking an appointment online you will press to book then you will be asked to press confirm, if you do not press confirm at this point the appointment will not be booked for you.
Please be advised all appointments available online to book are GP & ANP Telephone Appointments. If they wish to see you following the telephone consultation they will arrange for you to attend.
