Welcome

Welcome to the Felmores Medical Centre website. We aim to provide all of our patients with a comprehensive range of healthcare services covering one-off problems to longer term illnesses. Feel free to explore the site and find out how you and your family can benefit from our personal and professional approach to healthcare provision.

 New GP Telephone Triage Appointment System

With effect from 18th November 2019 we will be piloting a new appointment system. The aim is to make it easier for you to see the most appropriate health professional and have your problem dealt with on the day.

To book an appointment ring the practice main line telephone numbers: 01268 728108 (Felmores) or 01268 285285 (Long Riding) as normal.

We will no longer be booking face to face appointments at Reception, unless we deem that exceptional circumstances exist.

What happens when you ring our Appointment Line?

A Receptionist will answer your call and ask how they can help. 

If you are requesting an appointment, you will be asked by the Receptionist the nature of your problem. This allows them to make sure the right person deals with you in a timely fashion.

This could be a Practice Nurse, Health Care Assistant or a GP.  

If your treatment requires input by a GP, you will be put onto a Triage Telephone appointment list and a Doctor will call you back. They will discuss your condition and any appropriate treatment.

 Once you have spoken to the GP; they may make an appointment for you to come into the Practice for a physical examination.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

New Data Protection Regulations from May 2018 (GDPR)

Under the new data protection regulations introduced from 25th May 2018, we will continue to contact patients via text messages regarding the delivery of care, health promotion and appointment reminders, if they have provided consent to do so

If practices are sending messages about recommended treatment for the management of a specific health issue, then this is defined as providing appropriate care for patients, not marketing purposes.

If you would like to opt out of any future contact via text messaging and/or email, then please complete a Text Messaging/Email opt out Consent Form.  Please note by opting out of this service, you will not receive appointment reminders; hence the responsibility of attending appointments will rest on the patient.
