Milestone Surgery is pleased to announce the launch of our new Urgent Care Team.

An ever expanding workforce and limited space in our building has led us to explore innovative ways of delivering high quality healthcare. Together with our future planned merger with Southwood Surgery on 1^st April 2019, this has prompted us to consider a new model of care, to work at scale and deliver a more efficient service to our patients.

We have carefully planned to separate our urgent demand from routine appointments by setting up an Urgent Care Service.

From 5^th November 2018, patients who need to be seen on the day will be given an appointment with a member of our Urgent Care Team. The team will consist of the following Health Care Professionals:   

Duty doctor

Nurse Prescriber

Paramedic Practitioner

GP Registrar

Our reception team have been trained to ask you for the reason for your appointment, so a reason must be given for all on the day appointment requests. This is to ensure that you are dealt with by the most appropriate Health Care Professional. If you cannot provide a reason you will be booked into a routine appointment, but this may not be on the same working day. For your peace of mind, our reception team all undertake annual confidentiality training.

Patients who would like to book a routine (up to 4 weeks in advance) appointment with their own GP will still be able to do so.

We are constantly striving to offer our patients a better service and appreciate your cooperation whilst we make these changes to our appointment system.

Many thanks.
