🩺 Getting the Right Care, Faster: Who to See at Your GP Surgery 👥✨

Monday mornings are often our busiest time for appointment requests. To help you get seen by the right specialist as quickly as possible, our team includes a wide range of healthcare professionals—meaning a GP isn't always the only (or quickest) person to help!

🏃‍♂️ First Contact Physiotherapists: Direct assessment and rehabilitation plans for joint, neck, back, or muscular pain without needing a GP referral first.

💊 Clinical Pharmacists: Expert medication reviews, help with side effects, prescription queries, and synchronising your repeat medications.

🩺 Practice Nurses & Healthcare Assistants: Routine blood tests, blood pressure checks, wound dressings, asthma/diabetes reviews, and vaccinations.

👨‍⚕️ General Practitioners (GPs): Complex conditions, multiple long-term health issues, unresolving symptoms, and specialized referrals.

💡 Top Tip: When our reception team or online triage form asks for a brief outline of your symptoms, it’s completely confidential and ensures you are booked directly with the right expert the first time!
