APPOINTMENTS

• Text Messages - If we have your mobile phone number, and you have not opted out, you will now be sent a text reminder the day before your appointment at the surgery.  If you no longer require the appointment, please telephone reception on 01329 664231 and cancel it.  This system should reduce the number of missed appointments which are currently around 35 each week.
• Extended Hours - We have appointments outside the normal working day ie Alternate Monday evenings from 6.30pm - 7.30pm; Friday mornings from 7.40am - 8am and one Saturday a month from 8.30am - 11.30am.

Exercise Referral Scheme - If you meet the selection criteria, take little or no exercise but are prepared to change, you can be referred to Fareham Leisure Centre.  You will undergo an assessment with a personal trainer and be recommended a course of suitable exercise at a reduced fee.  Ask the Nurse or Doctor if you qualify during your next appointment.

 Waste Medicine - Each year in England over 500 tonnes of unwanted medicine is destroyed.  To help us to reduce waste, please only order what you need and ask for unwanted medicines to be removed from your repeat prescription slip.
