Think Pharmacy First

Pharmacists can give you advice on a range of conditions and suggest medicines that can help.

They may also be able to offer treatment and some prescription medicine for some conditions, without you needing to see a GP (this is called Pharmacy First).

For more information, please see our Treating Minor Illness page.

 

Call the Practice

If you call us on the main surgery telephone number 0208 665 4757 between 8.00am – 6.30pm Monday to Friday except Bank Holidays we will endeavour to do our best to arrange a telephone call or an appointment on the same day or as soon as possible.

You can also call us anytime between 8.00am – 6.30pm Monday to Friday except Bank Holidays to book a pre-bookable appointment.

Remember – The clinicians cannot deal effectively and safely with more than one major problem or 2 minor problems in a 10 minute appointment. Presenting with a long list, may result with the doctor advising a further appointment. If you feel you need a longer appointment, please let the receptionist know when you are booking your appointment.
