PATCHS

Our new online consultation software called PATCHS goes live on Monday 5th August 2024. Please click the PATCHS banner below to access PATCHS and submit your requests online.

Please note that PATCHS is an alternative method of communication with us rather than having to phone the practice. You can request an appointment for any of our clinicians or other health related information such as blood test results or request a sick note.

PATCHS does not have the capability to book an appointment for you automatically. Your PATCHS request will be assessed by a member of our practice team and you will receive a text message advising you of your management plan. This might be a link for you to book an appointment at the practice or at another health facility or it may give you advice and signposting. When all available slots have been booked, PATCHs will not accept further requests for an appointment on the system.

If you need our help urgently that day, then you should ring the surgery as you normally would.

For assistance with using PATCHS, please use our PATCHS User Guide.
