Car Parking

There is no on-site parking though there is 1 disabled parking bay. Parking is reserved for doctors due to the size of our site and planning restrictions. The forecourt with level access to the surgery has a drop-off space and an ambulance bay, both of which must be kept clear.
There is unrestricted parking on Stag Lane and other local roads though there are also some yellow lines. Driving during the school run can be difficult, so best avoided.

If driving onto our site, please be aware it is shared access and there will be children and disabled people around and be vigilant on exiting the site onto Stag Lane.

Cycling

There is a large covered cycle shelter provided at the front of the site.

Pram Park and Children

There is a covered Buggy Park with locking bar inside the main entrance overlooked by the waiting room. Due to safety considerations, we cannot allow prams or buggies inside the surgery.

If you need help with looking after your children whilst you are seeing the doctor, please ask at reception. Please keep a close eye on your children at all time they are on the premises. Although we carry out regular risk assessments and keep the surgery as safe as possible there are potentially hazardous drugs and equipment stored in cupboards which adventurous children might find a way of gaining access to and children running around can present a hazard to less abled patients..

Disability Access

Our surgery is fully accessible with a level entrance and a lift. If you require any assistance please ask..

There is one Disability Parking Bay on the site.

There is a hearing loop at reception and we have a portable loop for use in consultations.

If you have communication difficulties please ask when booking if you wish to have help during your consultation (or you can bring someone yourself if you prefer).
We use Silent Sounds interpreting services, either for telephone interpreting or with a face to face interpreter (we need prior warning to book this at the time of your appointment)
