Cancel or change an appointment

To cancel your appointment:

  • Use your NHS account (through the NHS website or NHS App).
  • Phone the surgery during opening hours.
  • Visit the surgery and let the receptionist know in person.

Please tell us as soon as possible if you no longer need your appointment so we can offer your appointment to someone else and help reduce waiting times.

If you regularly miss booked appointments, you may be asked to find an alternative GP practice and removed from our practice list.

Types of appointments

However you choose to contact us we may offer you a consultation:

  • By phone.
  • Face to face at the surgery.
  • By text or email.

Appointments by phone, text or email can be more flexible and often means the doctor or nurse can help you sooner.

Help with your mental health

Mental health services are free on the NHS. Your mental health is important and you should get help if you need it.

In Salford, you can access mental health support by talking to your GP first who can make a referral for you to the local NHS Talking Therapies service.
