FAQs

When will I receive my test results?

We understand how eager you are to receive medical results after getting tests done, where this is an X-Ray or a blood test. This is why we have put together some quick tips for test results, to ensure this process is as efficient and effective as possible!

If you do not hear from us one week after the test is taken, please call us at the practice and speak to a nurse. You will not be contacted if your results are normal, however the results will be available to you on Manage My Health, once reviewed by a doctor.
If you wish to discuss your results further, please make a follow-up appointment with your doctor.
Test results are sometimes difficult to understand. If at any time the results are unclear to you, or have any further questions about your results, please contact reception and a nurse may be able to discuss this with you further.
Please ensure you make reception aware if you have a change in your contact details, as it is important that your doctor or nurse can contact you with your results if required.

What should I do if I need to see a doctor today and there are no appointments available?

If it is a medical emergency please ring 111 immediately for assistance.

If it is not an emergency, please phone the practice on 07 575 4057 to speak to a nurse, who can triage your query and provide you with advice and best care options. Dependent on the situation, we may be able to see you on the day.

I'm here on holiday. Can I book an appointment?

Due to extremely high demand, we are only able to see enrolled patients at this time. There is a walk-in GP clinic at Accident & Healthcare on Second Ave until 9pm, 7 days a week. Alternatively you can use an online GP consultation service such as Practice Plus.

How do I get a repeat prescription?

You'll first need to discuss with your doctor to confirm this is a safe option for you.

Repeat prescriptions can be requested via Manage My Health, the prescription line (Option 2 on our main phone line 07 5754057) or in person via the reception desk. Please allow at least 48 hours for this to be processed. If you require a prescription urgently there will be an additional charge.

Please note:

Some conditions require more regular monitoring and therefore you may be asked to see a doctor on a more regular basis.
You are required to be reviewed by a doctor at least every 6 months for your prescription to be completed.
