Practice Clinics

Making appointments

Appointments requests can now be made via telephone, patient access or email by simply sending an email to portcullis.surgery@nhs.net or by calling the reception team as usual on 01584 872 939. The reception team will then book an initial telephone call with a nurse, health care assistant or Doctor who then triages the call and then decides if a video consultation or photo will be enough to assess the medical problem or if a face to face appointment is needed.
