Policies and Appointments

Policy

Patients are our priority!

Our aim is to provide our patients with comprehensive health care, in a warm and friendly environment. The doctors and staff at Foothills work hard to achieve this. We appreciate any help in this endeavour, for example asking for long appointments if the problems are complex.

Urgent cases will be attended to. Acutely ill patients will have priority over other non urgent cases. We apologise for any delays resultant from this very sensible policy

Suggestions and comments are welcome. Please feel free to offer constructive suggestions as to how we may improve our practise!

Appointments

Patients are seen by appointment, but urgent cases can be seen at any time by contacting the surgery, on 94536999.

Despite our best intentions, we sometimes run late! This is because someone has needed some unexpected urgent attention. Be assured, when it comes to your turn, the doctor will continue to give your problems the time they deserve.

We ask that for complicated problems or procedures such as mole removal or pap smear testing, that long appointments are asked for. This makes it easier to keep to scheduled times.
