Health Care Assistant appointments for blood test or blood pressure can be booked online though Patient Online Access or the NHS App as well as through reception. Blood tests need to be requested by the doctor prior to the appointment.
When you call reception if you are 5th or later in the queue you have the option to request a ring back and still remain in the same position in the queue.
This is automatic and if calls are not answered on the ring back, it will try a second attempt, however, if still no answer, it does not ring back a third time.
Please note the receptionist has no control over this and if you call multiple times and request a ring back each time. It will attempt to call you back every time.
Please note, the surgery is aware of the shortage of appointments, and we have a team of additional qualified medical clinicians that can also see patients for specific reasons. It does not have to be a doctor.
