How to Book an Appointment

Pharmacy & Self-Care

Your pharmacy can advise you on minor illness without the need of an appointment. Please speak to a pharmacist first.

Self-Care

Help and support available from many National and Local Organisations

Pharmacy & Self Care

Pharmacists are qualified healthcare professionals who can offer clinical advice, over the counter medicines and their use, to effectively and safely manage a range of minor health concerns. They can also help you to decide whether you'll need to see a doctor. You don't need an appointment and you won't even be asked to make a purchase. Every pharmacy also has a private consultation area for you to talk about your symptoms in private if you prefer.

LOCATE A PHARMACY

Book an appointment

Book a GP telephone or face-to-face appointment

You can phone 01243 782266 for a GP telephone consultation or GP face to face appointment.

You can also complete an online consultation form between 8:00am and 12:30pm.

Reception services are available Monday - Friday 8:00am - 6:30pm.

The Receptionists do their best to satisfy all requests to see the Doctor and you will be given the first appointment available. To avoid confusion, please tell the receptionist if more than one person needs an appointment. They may also ask the nature of the problem. This is not them being nosey - it is so that they can have as much information in order to signpost you to the best destination such as GP or Pharmacist.

Dealing With Telephone Calls

Usually we aim to answer promptly, but in the mornings (and especially on Monday) the phone can be very busy. To get a better service, please avoid telephoning for routine matters such as general advice or test results until after 11:30am. You can also use our call back facility if you are held in a queue and we will phone you back as soon as a telephone line becomes free.

Chaperoning

You are entitled to ask for or arrange a chaperone to be present during intimate examinations. You may chose a friend or relative or ask the Practice to provide one. If you need the practice to provide a chaperone, please ask in advance so that this can be arranged for you.

Interpreting/Translation

This can be arranged when required, including for our deaf patients.

GP Access Hub

As well as talking to one of the GPs at Langley House, you may also be offered contact with a GP from the GP Hub. Along with many other practices across the country, Chichester practices have received some national funding and are working together to operate a GP Hub to offer extra appointments. The clinician will have full access to your medical records and Langley House will be able to see the consultation details immediately afterwards. At all times, you will remain registered with Langley House Surgery.
