Demand on our services via Anima, telephones and walk in patients has increased significantly since the easing of lockdown restrictions. To enable us to continue to safely delivery core services to our patients we may from time to time have to temporarily suspend Anima so that it does not compromise patient safety.

The Right Care from the Right Person

Nearly everyone who calls a GP practice to make an appointment asks to see to a GP, but very often help will be available from other highly skilled medical professionals such as Advanced Nurse Practitioners, Clinical Pharmacist, Practice Nurse, Health Care Assistant and GP Assistant, or from other services, including the voluntary sector, who can support people with a wide range of social, emotional or practical needs

Our Reception Team are trained Care Navigators. This means they can help you access the correct service. They will need to ask for a brief description of your problem. This does not mean they are being nosey or trying to stop you from seeing a Clinician, they are trying to help you to see the most appropriate person to deal with your problem.

We currently have 5 GPs Dr James MacBeth, Dr Animesh Sinha, Dr Suma Kuna, Dr Jaine Rozenbroek and Dr Madhavi Gundabathuni together with our Advanced Nurse Practitioners Cherie, Rachel, Tracy (paediatrics) and Rachel , who are supported by our Practice Nurses, Clinical Pharmacist, GP Assistants and Health Care Assistant.

How does our Appointment system work?

We have a mix of face to face appointments and telephone appointments.

Our reception team need to offer you the most appropriate appointment to deal with your problem. You may not always need a face to face appointment with a GP/Nurse at the surgery, you may be offered a telephone consultation, extended access appointment or directed to pharmacy or a local walk-in centre. A receptionist will need to ask you for details of the problem you are calling with, this is to enable use to direct you to the most appropriate clinician.

We now also offer Anima. You can get help help or advice, request your sick note from our Practice online with Anima. This is available Monday to Friday.

For minor symptoms less than 3 days old, we would encourage you to consult your local pharmacy or see our self care section on our website.

Please be considerate to other patients and remember 1 Appointment is for 1 problem AND 1 patient. Asking the GP to deal with multiple problems or see additional family members, in one 10 minute appointment can cause the GP to run late which has an impact on other patients.

Should you turn up 10 minutes or more late for your appointment you may not be seen, and your appointment may have to be rescheduled.

If you struggle to see/speak to a Clinician during normal working hours, please ask our reception team about Extended Access Appointments. These are available both evenings and weekends with a range of clinicians at different locations across Warrington.

Remote and face to face appointments are available- there is an array of clinicians available who can be seen remotely or face to face, such as GPs and Nurses.
