CHANGES TO THE APPOINTMENT SYSTEM

The Gables Surgery is continually looking at ways to improve the appointment system.

From 1st May 2009

Telephone the surgery from 10.00 am   to book an appointment.

Same day appointments will be for Urgent  requests only and will be triaged by the nurse.

We will have more appointments available to book in advance.

You can book an appointment up to 7 days in advance (subject to availability).

If you encounter any problems booking an appointment please pass your concerns/comments to Miss Joanne Robinson, Practice Manager

If agreed by the doctor you may have repeat prescriptions. You can do this by dropping the tear slip off your last prescription and indicating by a tick the medication you require on repeat. Please drop your repeat prescriptions in the box at reception, there is no need to ring the bell

Alternatively you can fax or post your repeat prescriptions. You can also order your prescritions on line. Prescriptions will only be taken over the telephone if you fall into the following category:-

  • Elderley/Housebound
  • You have run out of medication and are asthmatic/diabetic etc
  • Any other genuine emergency

Your prescription can be collected from the practice between 8:30am and 6:00pm. Please note that the surgery is closed between 12:30 and 1:30pm

Please allow 48 hours before collecting your prescription, this does not include weekends. Allow four days for delivery.
