Reception Team

Our Medical Receptionists provide an important link for patients with the practice and are your initial contact point for general enquiries. They can provide information on services and results and direct you to the right person depending on your health issue or query. Our reception team are committed to helping patients and deal with a constant stream of telephone calls and enquiries. When telephoning for medical attention, the receptionists will ask some standardised questions as instructed by the doctors to make sure you see the most appropriate person at the most appropriate time. They have been trained to make these enquiries so that you can be helped in the most appropriate way and are bound by confidentiality and data protection legislation.
