Contrary to the rumour that there are `No Doctors in the Surgery’, they are seeing patients every day. But you do have to be triaged in order to assess the urgency of your call and the best way of dealing with the problem when you are called back. You may not get to see your own Doctor but there will be a doctor there to give you advice.
The Patient Participation Group works with the Surgery but is independent of the surgery. Should you have a problem please contact us. I am afraid that we cannot increase the size of the car park! It is owned by the surgery and is for that use only during surgery hours. If you have a medical complaint it should be referred to Jill Stinchcombe, the Practice Manager. Any communications with us are confidential. We are self- funded and occasionally have to raise money to pay for Newsletters and Health Evenings.
The Patient Participation Group is looking for someone with IT skills to help us reach out to our members as Chris Oxtoby is now retiring after many years of helping us and setting up the email list, for which many thanks Chris.
Please contact myself
maryloukellaway@btinternet.com or Sally Somerville
salsomerville@gmail.com if you think you could help us. We are now having zoom meetings as we can’t meet up in person and wonder whether someone would like to join who can represent younger patients. Please contact us.
