Urgent Appointments
If you require an urgent appointment, please complete the triage form and a GP will assess your condition or should the form be unavailable, please contact reception on 0114 2322055 and our team will assist you. For medical emergencies, please attend A&E at the Northern General Hospital or dial 999.

Home Visits
Whilst we encourage our patients to come to the surgery, where we have the proper equipment and facilities available, we do appreciate this is not always possible. In this respect, if you do need a home visit, you can help us by calling reception before 10:30.
You may only request a home visit if you are housebound or are too ill to visit the practice. Your clinician will only visit you at home if they think that your medical condition requires it and will also decide how urgently a visit is needed. Please bear this in mind and be prepared to provide suitable details to enable the clinician to schedule house calls
Cancellations & Reminders
Cancel an Appointment
It is important that you inform us if you are unable to attend your appointment as this will allow the appointment to be offered to another patient. If you fail to notify the Practice that you are unable to attend, you will be sent a text message informing you that you did not attend your appointment and a note of this will be kept on your medical records. Patients who regularly do not attend their appointments and fail to cancel their appointment will be removed from the list. Please call the Practice to cancel your appointment or complete the admin section of the online form here Contact us about your request to inform one of our reception team.
