Home Visits & Emergencies
HOME VISITS - 01489 785722
If you are housebound, or feel you are genuinely too ill to come to the Medical Centre, a Doctor may visit you at home. Please ring before 10.30am whenever possible. If you can get to the Medical Centre, this helps the Doctor, as home visits are very time consuming. The Medical Centre has better facilities for examinations and treatment.
