Appointments

How to make an appointment with a Doctor:

Riverside Surgery operates a mixed appointment system with same day and pre-bookable appointments up to three weeks in advance.

You can book an appointment in the following ways:-

1. Telephone the surgery or if convenient, ask at Reception or via our online appointment system, please see information below about how to register. 
2. You may consult any of the Doctors within the practice.
3. Please book a separate appointment for each person attending.
4. If you cannot keep your appointment, please let us know.
5. There are some healthcare problems that maybe dealt with more appropriately by other members of our healthcare team. This can save waiting time and be more convenient to patients.
6. You may be contacted by an Urgent Care Practitioner who will ensure you are seen as quickly as necessary.

How to make an appointment with a Nurse:

You may book nurse appointments up to a month in advance by telephone or in person.
Our practice nurses provide many specialist clinics for the promotion of good health and disease management.

Urgent Care Practitioner - telephone (01652) 650131

We have an Urgent Care Practitioner who deals with requests for home visits and emergencies, as well as offering advice on a variety of conditions. This service operates Monday to Friday 08:00 to 18:30.

Speaking to the Doctors

If you wish to speak to your doctor on the telephone it will normally be possible to do this by arrangement with the receptionist. It would be helpful in judging the urgency of the call and also ensuring the doctor has your notes and relevant information available if you could tell the receptionist the nature of your call when you ring. At other times we may be busy and we find that interruptions during surgery are upsetting both to ourselves and to patients we are seeing. For this reason we have asked receptionists not to disturb consultations with non-urgent telephone calls.

Home Visits - (01652) 650131

If you are too ill to attend the surgery please try to telephone before 10:30 am to enable the doctor to plan his rounds.

Please attend the surgery whenever possible. The Urgent Care Practitioner handles all requests for home visits.
