Policies and Appointments

Policy

Home Visits These are done on request. After hours visits can be arrange by phoning the surgery. The phone is either diverted to my mobile, home or locum number. I\'m not on 24 hour call but if you can find me I\'ll probably come out, as long as I\'m sober.

Prescriptions Phoning for a prescription is frowned upon. I much prefer you to come in and see me because they are legal documents and phone prescriptions are the greatest source of medication errors.

Vaccinations All types of vaccinations are available. I don\'t really like sticking needles into tiny kids but it is part of the job and I make an effort to be as quick and as painless as possible.

Waiting Room. Bother, I\'m held up by another chatty patient. There is a toy box for the kids to demolish, the latest Time magazine to read and today\'s Advertiser. There is a lovely park across the road and a Deli next door. I won\'t be forever. Toilets are to the left.

Other Stuff I have an ECG machine which gives a computer generated report. I do minor sugical procedures and can freeze of warty things from the skin. I\'m currently going through the accreditation process. More details can be found on my practice information brochure (free) at the surgery.

Appointments

I like to work by appointments because I hate to keep people waiting. Phone 08 8295 4710 and Helen will arrange an appointment I consult every weekday and alternate Saturday mornings. Tuesday afternoons and Thursday afternoons are set aside for home visits. In this business there are always unavoidable delays. We do however try to avoid them.
