Urgent Appointment

Phone us on 028 2766 0300 

Monday to Friday from 8:30am 

Urgent appointments are for acute medical problems rather than ongoing medical conditions.  If you need to see a Medical Practitioner urgently a member of the reception team will take details of your problem.  We will use the information you give us to choose the most suitable doctor, nurse or health professional to help you.

A Medical Practitioner will phone you back and triage the call where they may leave you medication, book you a face to face appointment or give you an onward referral.

We cannot offer a specific GP for urgent problems.

Routine Appointment

Routine Appointments are for ongoing issues.  You do not have to give any information at the time of booking but we would request that if you need a medical carried out that you let the receptionist know so that extra time can be allocated to suit your needs.
