Patients between the ages of 16-74 who have not been seen at the surgery for a period of 3 years may request a consultation with a GP, at which any appropriate enquiries and investigations will be made.
Consultations can also be requested by patients over the age of 75, who have not been seen at the surgery for 12 months or more. Consultations for the over 75s will take place at home if appropriate.
