Arrange a GP home visit

How to arrange a home visit

You can arrange a visit by calling the surgery through 0117 932 2108 and explaining your problem. We can then arrange to see the most urgent cases first.

If possible, please try to telephone reception before 11am if you require a home visit. Home visits are available by the doctors or advanced care practitioners (ACP’s) attached to the practice for the terminally ill and housebound only.

If you are able to come to the surgery, then we would appreciate it if you could book an appointment. This is because home visits can take up to six times longer than an in-person surgery visit, so it helps the GP to see more patients if you can try to come to the surgery.

You can also bring your children into the surgery if they have a high temperature.

Change or cancel a home visit

You can change or cancel a home visit by calling the surgery. If your home visit is no longer convenient for you, then it’s important to let us know so that we can help other patients.

If you need help when we´re closed

If you need medical help when we´re closed, then you can call 111.
