Online Services

Online Services

Connect to your GP services online and save time. Quick, easy and secure.

If you are registered with our GP surgery, you can access some health services online. This means you can do some tasks when it is better for you and avoid telephoning the practice. 

You can do things like:

  • Order repeat prescriptions
  • See parts of your health record, including information about medicines, vaccinations and test results
  • See communications between your GP surgery and other services, such as hospitals
  • Book, check or cancel appointments with a GP, nurse or other healthcare professional
  • Send us a query or request a sick note

Below are some of the main online services we use in our GP surgery:

Non-urgent advice: Getting Started

To begin using GP Online Services you simply need to bring in two forms of identification (one of which must have a photo) and fill in a short form at reception. Alternatively, if you have an appointment with one of our GPs you can ask them to sign and vouch for your identity.

Our Reception Team will scan and return your documents then give you your personal login details and password. You will then be able to log in and access online services straight away.

Please note we look closely at all applications for access to make sure they are genuine.

Access can also be withdrawn at any time if there are concerns about patient confidentiality.
