New Patient Registration Process

New Telephone System
The practice has now introduced a new telephone system. There is now a separate option (2) to press for when calling after 11 a.m. for a prescription. You will also hear new messages and a call management system. This is designed to allow us to manage the high volume of calls we receive. As you will hear from the automated message, we will now be recording all telephone calls for training and monitoring purposes.
Extended Access Appointments
It is now possible to book appointments 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. 7 days a week. These appointments are provided by the Larwood and Bawtry Primary Care Network, and will be offered at a range of sites, but not at Bawtry Health Centre or Blyth Surgery. It will also not be Bawtry and Blyth Medical clinicians offering these appointments, but Primary Care Network clinicians. Therefore if you would like an appointment with your usual doctor, this will have to be during our core opening hours as before (8 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.).
