GP

Your local Doctors surgery (or GP practice) provides a wide range of family health services, including:

  • advice on health problems
  • vaccinations
  • examinations and treatment
  • prescriptions for medicines
  • referrals to other health services and social services

If your condition is non-urgent, you can expect to see a doctor within two working days or a health professional such as a nurse within one working day. If you don't need an appointment within two working days, you can sometimes book in advance if this is more convenient for you.

It is important to attend for appointments, or notify the surgery if you have to cancel or change it.

Dentist

Dentists provide regular check ups on your teeth and gums. Part of their work involves teaching people to look after their teeth and gums in order to prevent problems. It also includes restoration of teeth damaged or lost by decay, trauma or other reasons, using a wide variety of techniques and materials.
Dental practices can take private and NHS patients, and most practices take a mixture of both. It is important to ring your Dentist to confirm the services that they provide and to make appointments.
