HOW DO I...
MAKE AN APPOINTMENT?

Appointments may be made by telephoning Scunthorpe 843375 for Ashby Road, or Scunthorpe 292011 for the Ironstone Centre or by calling at either surgery. If you cannot keep an appointment, please inform us as soon as possible as this will assist in over-subscribed situations.

HOW DO I...
OBTAIN A HOME VISIT?

Please make every effort to attend surgery as we can offer more comprehensive care here for examination and treatment. Priority is always given to urgent cases.

If you need a home visit please telephone Scunthorpe 843375 (before 10.00am if possible) giving as much information as you can to the receptionist as this allows the doctor to assess the urgency of the visit.

HOW DO I...
OBTAIN TEST RESULTS?

It is the responsibility of the patient to contact the surgery to obtain any investigation/test results.

Most results of investigations should be back within one week of the test being performed. Please telephone between 10.00 and 11.45am or between 2.00 and 4.00pm. Results can only be given to the patient direct.

It is important that you always contact the surgery for your result, either by telephone or by seeing the doctor again in the surgery.
