Urgent Medical Problems
Urgent appointments are for situations that cannot wait. You must ring anytime before 18:30. You will be triaged and accommodated accordingly.
We will try to deal with emergencies on the same day. You may be asked for your contact number details for the GP to call you back.
If your problem is very urgent and serious, or if you have had an accident or injury, you may wish to attend your local accident and emergency department, or call an ambulance by dialling 999.
Extended Access Appointments
Extended access appointments are available with limited availability. These need to be booked through the practice for times when we are not open.
Please speak to reception for further information.
You will not see your usual GP as this service is covered at a separate site with locum doctors only. They will have access to your medical records online if you book into the service.
Non-urgent advice: Extended Hours Service
Extended hours service is now on Wednesdays between 6:30 pm and 9:30 pm with our own GP via telephone. To be booked by calling the reception on 0161 2242452.
Transport Requests
The surgery is able in some cases to arrange transport for patients to attend their first hospital visit. The hospital will need to arrange the transport for any subsequent visits or follow-up. We will need at least five working days’ notice before an appointment to make the arrangements.
Cancelling an Appointment
If you are unable to keep an appointment please let us know as soon as possible. This may enable someone else to be seen.

Home Visits
Home visits are to be requested for house bound patients only.
If you are too ill to attend surgery, please telephone before 10.00am to speak with the Duty Doctor.
The doctor will phone you back at the end of morning surgery to assess the problem and decide if a home visit is necessary. Requests received after midday will normally be visited the following day unless medically urgent.
Emergencies will be attended to immediately.
Lack of personal transport is not a valid reason for a home visit.
