Welcome to Park and St Francis Surgery

eConsult

You can now have your enquiry dealt with efficiently without the stress of sitting in a telephone queue.

Simply click the button to "get started" you will be asked the same questions our reception team would ask you on the phone, your enquiry is then submitted to our reception team who can then begin processing your request.

Welcome to our website which we hope you will find both useful and informative.

With patient’s needs at the heart of everything we do, our website has been designed to make it easy for you to gain instant access to the information you need. As well as specific practice details such as opening hours and how to register, you’ll find a wealth of useful pages covering a wide range of health issues along with links to other relevant medical organisations.

Our Practice Team aims to provide a confidential and efficient service in a secure and safe environment, promoting health as well as caring for you when you are ill.  We will undertake to treat you with dignity, respecting and taking into account your wishes and opinions, regardless of your race, gender, ethnic or national origin, belief, sexual orientation, marital status, gender reassignment, age or disability. 

Our Mission Statement

Park and St Francis surgery aims to provide the best possible care in a happy working environment which values practice and personal development based on achievable and realistic goals.

We have changed the way we patients are able to book for on the day appointments, anyone over the age of 18 please use the E-consult (above) this will signpost you to the most appropriate outcome. E-Consult is the same as calling into speak to our triage nurse and will ( if needed ) email our team with your e-consult consultation where the triage nurse will respond to you. The benefits of this service are that it saves you waiting on the phone and may signpost you to the best outcome for you. 

We would like to welcome Dr Laila Nicholson to our practice. Dr Nicholson replaces Dr Maha Ahmad and all patients who were registered under Dr Ahmad will now be registered under Dr Nicholson.

Flu season is here and available for all those who are eligible .

Our practice has been organising appointments so unless you have an appointment organised, we will not be able to give you a vaccination outside of your appointment,  one appointment = 1 vaccination. If you are unable to attend or wish to rebook your appointment please contact the surgery on 02380 252131

Why flu vaccination is important for people with long-term health conditions:

Flu on top of any long-term health condition can easily develop into something very serious, and you could end up in hospital. You are eligible for the free flu jab if you have the following conditions:

COPD, bronchitis, emphysema or asthma
Heart disease
Kidney disease
Liver disease
Have had a stroke or a transient ischaemic attack (TIA)
Diabetes
Lowered immunity as a result of disease or medical treatment, such as steroid medication or cancer treatment
A neurological condition, such as Parkinson's disease, motor neurone disease, multiple sclerosis (MS), cerebral palsy, or a learning disability
A problem with your spleen, including sickle cell disease, or if you have had your spleen removed
A BMI of 40 or above (seriously overweight)
Don't put it off –  get the flu jab now. It's free because you need it.

Please be reassured that there is plenty of time for our eligible patients to receive their flu vaccination within the Flu season.

PPG Survey 2019

Here is our  Patient Participation Survery for 2019 Thank you to all our patients for completing this survery this helps us to make specific changes for our patients in our practice. PPG 2019 Survey

Our Responses - We have made changes in response to the Patient Participation Survey by:

• Opening our appointment booking system to allow patients to book up to 4 weeks ahead. 
• Changed our practice website.
• Advertise and promote the use of evening and weekend appointments for patients at our local out of hours hubs.
• Have specific information stands in the practice waiting room and speakers for the meetings.  

Booking a Routine Appointment

Our routine appointments were being booked up-to 6 weeks ahead thus not allowing for patients to be seen earlier for a routine appointment. We also have a large proportion of patients who did not attend for their appointments. We have now changed the system so patient can only book up 4 weeks ahead to prevent patients having to wait up-to 6 weeks ahead and fewer patients who do not attend for their appointments.

Extended Hours Appointments

Cancelling an Appointment on line

To cancel appointments on line please access online services. Any appointments you wish to cancel within 24 hours please phone the surgery direct. Appointments for Monday Mornings should not be cancelled later than Thursday on the website.
