From April 2023, you can now book in with any GP at your practice. If you wish to speak to a specific GP, you will be offered the soonest pre-bookable routine appointment with that GP. This can be either by telephone, by video call or as a face-to-face appointment.

You are able to book routine appointments with a GP up to two weeks in advance only. If there are no appointments available, you may be offered an appointment with another GP. Nursing appointments can be booked up to 6 weeks in advance, sometimes longer.

Every patient at Holsworthy, Hatherleigh and Stratton will continue to be allocated a named GP. This is necessary for legal and administrative purposes. Information coming back after referrals to hospitals and other healthcare providers, will always be sent back to referring clinician.

 CALL AFTER 11am FOR ROUTINE MATTERS

For routine bookings and queries, please call after 11am, leaving the phone lines open for urgent care requests earlier in the morning. Anyone with an urgent condition is free to call at any time during normal opening hours.

If your condition is urgent: has come on in the last 24 to 48 hours, or is an existing condition that has got suddenly worse, you will be advised to book in with out Critical Care Team (On The Day Team) for that day. This multidisciplinary team is available every week day and consists of a combination of Nurse Practitioners, Urgent Care Practitioners and other healthcare professionals as well as GPs.

If you are booked into this clinic you will receive a call from a member of the team first. Due to nature of urgent care, we are unable to give you a time for this call. 

Please be reassured that you will be invited in and seen if there is a medical need to do so.

CALL AT ANY TIME DURING OPENING HOURS FOR URGENT CONDITIONS

If you need medical advice and direction when we are closed please call 111 or go online https://111.nhs.uk/

Always call 999 if your condition is life-threatening.

We also offer early morning appointments from 7.40am at Holsworthy, for those patients who cannot attend the practice during normal working hours.  

Telephone advice appointments are available with most of our heathcare professionals. Please request this on booking. If you are making a routine booking you will be given an approximate time. If you are being booked into our Critical Care Team (On The Day Team), then we will not be able to give you a time.

If you are using a mobile phone, please keep your phone on and make sure you have a strong signal.

Our clinicians typically see six 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, members of our Visiting Team (Nurse Practitioners and paramedics) can visit you at home if your condition means you cannot attend at a Medical Centre.

Please ring before 10:30am to arrange a visit and let us know if your condition is urgent. As visits are conducted throughout the day, and our team members have to travel considerable distances between patients occasionally, we cannot specify an exact time when you will be visited. If your condition deteriorates before we are able to get to you and you need urgent assistance please call 999.

Please ring your own surgery, have the Enhanced Access options explained to you and get booked in.
