Booking a Clinical Appointment (GP Team or Urgent Care Team)

Using eConsult

All requests for Clinical Appointments (GP Team or Urgent Care Team) must now be submitted through our eConsult system. This system will be available from 7.30am Monday – Friday and will only close once all our urgent appointment availability for that day has been filled.

If you require assistance or need for us to submit this request on your behalf, a member of our Patient Assistant Team is available, either over the telephone, or at front desk to help you.

Once submitted, your eConsult will be triaged by our ‘eConsult Administration Team’ who, together with a supporting GP, will manage requests in order of medical priority.  Patients identified as being in urgent need of our services will be contacted with an appointment that day.  Patients whose concerns are identified as being suitable for a routine appointment will be contacted within two working days, and provided with an appointment within the following two week period.

Pharmacy & Self-Care

Pharmacists are qualified healthcare professionals who can offer clinical advice, over the counter medicines and their use, to effectively and safely manage a range of minor health concerns. They can also help you to decide whether you'll need to see a doctor. You don't need an appointment and you won't even be asked to make a purchase. Every pharmacy also has a private consultation area for you to talk about your symptoms in private if you prefer.
