| How to see your Doctor |
|
Appointments can be made online in person, at reception or by telephone. We aim to offer you a routine ten minute appointment within 2 days, although this may not always be with the doctor of your choice.
For really urgent problems that cannot wait for a routine appointment Emergency appointments are held every weekday (time of day may vary). You will be guaranteed a same day consultation, for one urgent problem only, with the duty doctor who may not be your own doctor. Please reserve this service for urgent problems only, and don’t use it to jump the queue for ordinary appointments.

| Home Visits |
|
It is really helpful if requests for home visits can be made before 10.00am. Please give the receptionist brief details of your illness so that the doctor can assess the order of priority of his visits when on rounds. |
| Out of hours problems |
|
For urgent advice, or home visit requests at night and at weekends ring:111. South East Health runs the local out of hours service. Alternatively book online if you feel the problem can wait until the surgery is open again. |
| Teaching |
|
We are a training practice, so at times doctors who have finished their hospital training and are interested in General Practice as a career will be working at Warders under the guidance of Dr Howitt, Dr Morris, Dr Moore, Dr Alton, Dr Claxton or Dr Pearson. Medical and Nursing Students or paramedics may also be working with our GPs or Practice Nurses and you will always be informed of their presence. If you do not wish to see them please tell the Receptionist. |
