Clinical Pharmacists
We now have clinical pharmacists working within the surgery. They can help you by reviewing your long term medications for conditions such as hypertension and asthma. They can discuss how they are working for you and carry out health checks such as taking your blood pressure. The pharmacist can also explain medicines which have been newly started in hospital and resolve any medication-related side-effects that you may be experiencing. You can book an appointment with our pharmacist online, over the phone or in person with the reception team.

Patient Facilitation Team (reception)
Patient Facilitators provide an important link for patients with the practice and are your initial contact point for general enquiries. They can provide basic information on services and results and direct you to the right person depending on your health issue or query.
Patient Facilitators make most of the patient appointments with the GPs and nurses. They also perform other important tasks such as issuing repeat prescriptions and dealing with prescription enquiries, dealing with financial claims, dealing with patient records and carrying out searches and practice audits.
