Home Visits

Home visits are available only for housebound patients and patients whose clinical condition prevents them from attending the surgery. If you require a home visit please phone the surgery on 01279 465700 before 10:30 am. The receptionist will need to know your:

• Name
• Address
• Telephone Number
• Name of your usual doctor
• Nature of Problem

A doctor or nurse may phone you first to discuss the problem and advise you of the appropriate course of action.

This will help the doctor assess the urgency of the visit. Please note that it is likely that the Doctor visiting if it is an urgent requirement will be from the Herts Urgent Care Service.

We have both male and female doctors and nurses who may conduct the home visit. If you feel you can only be treated by a male or only by a female you should let us know. However this may mean that your visit is delayed if we are unable to accommodate your request that day.
