How to book same day medical support at Ordsall Health surgery

Patients or their representatives are required to submit an online request form via our Practice website homepage.

This allows the patient to provide much more information for the GP, who will then review the request, and process it accordingly.  

This type of appointment request will usually result in one of the following for the patient:

  • a conversation via text message
  • a return telephone call
  • asked to come in for an appointment.
  • ask that waiting to see the patient’s usual GP would be appropriate
  • we might recommend that the patient’s needs will be best met by one of our wider medical team. 

This process allows us to deal with patient’s urgent problems much more efficiently, by allowing the GP to prioritise the patients that are unwell, whilst also being able to give advice to many more patients.

.

  • If a patient does not have access to the internet or if the patient thinks that they will struggle to fill out the form, our reception team are able to support them by guiding the patient through the process or in exceptional circumstances they will complete the form on their behalf.
  • Once we feel we cannot safely deal with any more urgent requests for medical help on the day, the form will be switched off until the following morning. If patients feel help is still needed after the form request option is switched off, our reception team will be able to deal with any further requests.

Non-urgent advice: Important

Please note that the routine Non-Urgent appointments will continue to be booked as usual by calling a member of the Reception Team on 0161 983 0080.
