The team are available daily (Monday to Friday) at the practice.  They will help you with dressings, removal of sutures, ear syringing, injections and health advice.  They will carry out tests and other procedures requested by the doctors and they are also involved in patient disease management. 

The Practice/Business Manager is Miss Wendy Calder.   She will help you with any administrative enquiries about your healthcare.  She will also receive any comments or suggestions you wish to make.

We make every effort to give the best service possible to everyone who attends our practice.  However we are aware that things can go wrong resulting in a patient feeling that they have a genuine cause for complaint.  If this is so, we would wish for the matter to be settled as quickly and as amicably as possible.  Simply contact the practice manager, or in his absence the senior receptionist, as soon as possible and they will set the necessary procedure in motion.  Further written information on the complaints procedure is available on request.

Receptionists provide an important link for patients with the practice and are your initial contact point for general enquiries. They can provide basic information on services and results and direct you to the right person depending on your health issue or query. Receptionists make most of the patient appointments with the GPs and nurses. They also perform other important tasks such as issuing repeat prescriptions and dealing with prescription enquiries, dealing with financial claims, dealing with patient records and carrying out searches and practice audits.

At the end of August the health visiting team moved to what is described as a more corporate way or working to equalise the individual workload.  Within the health centre there are another 2 health visitors, 3 staff nurses, an early years worker, a support worker and part-time administrative support. 

They look after the under 5’s.  The school nurse takes on responsibility for those aged 5 and over.  The three health visitors are based in the Townhead corridor (Ext 67011) and the staff nurses in the Annat Bank corridor (Ext 67040) there being a clinical room in the Castlegait corridor.
