We operate an appointment system within this practice to try and reduce any wait you have in surgery to a minimum. We guarantee, any urgent medical problems that you have will be dealt with in surgery the same day.
If you have a non-urgent problem you may be asked to wait until the next available appointment. There are pre-bookable appointments up to two weeks in advance. This is for both doctors and nurses. Doctors' pre-bookable appointments are booked for the first half an hour and the last half an hour of each working day.
Available each morning are telephone appointments at Rawmarsh for patients to book. The doctor will then ring and speak to the patient but cannot diagnose. This can be used for queries patients wish to discuss but do not need an appointment.

Home Visits
If you are not fit enough to come to the surgery and feel that you need a house call, please telephone:
(01709) 522022 (Rawmarsh) before 10.00am or
(0114) 245 4504 (Thorpe Hesley) before 9.30am.
Home visits are only for very ill or housebound patients. There are few, if any, illnesses which can be made worse by a short car journey. If the patient has a rash or temperature, coming to surgery will do no harm nor endanger others. Make sure that inform the receptionist on arrival.
Surgery consultations allow the doctors time to see more patients and offer better facilities for examination and treatment. If you are unsure as to whether you need a home visit, please telephone and ask for advice
