HOME VISITS

HOME VISITS ARE MADE AT THE DISCRETION OF THE DOCTORS. Please do not ask the doctor to call unless the patient is genuinely too ill to come to the surgery. If the patient has a rash or temperature, coming to the surgery will do no harm nor endanger others.

When a home visit is required please try to request the visit before 11.00 am except in an emergency.   The receptionists are told to ask for as much information as possible by the doctors so that requests can be given the necessary priority. It may be that a doctor will ring back to give advice instead of making a visit. Remember that a doctor can generally see 3 patients in a surgery in the time it takes for one home visit, so we ask that you only request a visit if it is impossible to get to the surgery.   Visits are made at the end of morning surgery.
