It is preferable to see
patients at the Surgery, whenever possible, as examinations and

| How to See the Doctor of Your Choice – Firs: |
Surgeries are held every weekday morning and afternoon (except for Tuesday & Thursday afternoon). Surgery times are; 8.30 to 11.20 and 15:00 to 17:50. These are based on 10 minute appointment slots. Most of the appointments can be booked on the day but some are available for pre-booking up to two weeks in advance. On certain days of the week there is a nurse available at the Firs and, when booking an appointment, you may be asked if a nurse can help you. Our nurses are specially trained to deal with a range of day-to-day illnesses (Click here for information on our Nurse's clinics). Sometimes the named doctor may not be available at a particular surgery session. When this happens, the surgery session will be run, but with another doctor in attendance |
