Home Visits

Requesting a home visit

Home visits are specifically for patients who are too ill, or physically unable to attend the practice.  Our doctors typically see four patients in the practice in the time it takes to do a single home visit. For this reason, we ask our patients to come to the practice if at all possible. However, we can visit you at home if your condition means you cannot attend one of our practices. 

Please ring before 10:30am if you feel you require a home visit and let us know if your condition is urgent. The receptionist will request details of the problem in order that they may pass this on to the doctor. A doctor will then phone you back to assess your medical needs and may visit on the same day, or at a later date depending on clinical need.
