Minor Ailments (Existing Patients)

If you need to be seen urgently (i.e. the same day) please text me and I will see you if I am available.

£25.0020 min

Face-to-face or online

For a Minor Ailments appointment you must be an existing patient and have had a previous consultation with me in person (i.e. a Full First Consultation or a Meet, Greet & Treat appointment).  

Please describe the ailment or issue you would like help with in the text box while booking.

Appointments can be face-to-face, or online, however if you have an infectious illness such as a cold, flu, or tummy bug, I can only consult with you online.

What is a Minor Ailment?

I can only offer this service for symptomatic relief of short-term, minor illness or injury, e.g. colds, coughs, hay fever, digestive upsets, occasional constipation, UTIs, bruises, sprains, insect bites, minor wounds or burns, cold sores, temporary anxiety or stress etc. (Think of this as a bit like the things you might see the pharmacist for help with, rather than requiring a doctor's appointment!).

If you present at this appointment with an ongoing or more serious problem I may provide you with medicine to make you feel more comfortable, but may advise you to book in for a full appointment so we can look at the underlying causes of your complaint, or refer you for care elsewhere (e.g. GP, hospital).

If you are in any doubt about whether your problem is 'minor' please don’t hesitate to contact me to discuss before you book!

I am currently dealing with some rather frustrating quirks in the booking system I use, that mean my usual notice period for bookings (1 day) is not applying itself to my appointments calendar. Therefore, booking an appointment for the same day is currently possible via my booking system. If you wish to book a same-day appointment, it is absolutely essential that you check that I am still available BEFORE you book, by first calling or messaging me BY PHONE - 07466052378. Please do not use the contact form or email for this purpose as I am not guaranteed to receive your message in time. Thank-you!
