Appointments

Routine Appointments

Routine consultations are available by appointment with Doctors, Nurse Practitioners and Practice Nurses each day.

Please note that not all our Doctors and Nurses are full time and may vary their working day. Urgent requests for appointments are dealt with throughout the day via our Triage System where a Clinician will return your call as soon as possible to assess the urgency of your request, either offering you an appointment or treatment as soon as is practically possible.

For an appointment please contact the surgery on 01253 201365.

Urgent Appointments

Urgent conditions are always seen on the day. If your condition is non-urgent you can expect to see a GP within one working day, though you may have to wait longer if you request to see a particular GP.

Say immediately if your call is an emergency tell us if you are in a telephone box we can return your call. Let us know if more than one person in the family needs to be seen as we can make you a longer appointment if necessary.

Tell us if you want someone to accompany you during an examination or need a private room to discuss any matters.

If you need to be examined intimately you will always be offered a chaperone.

You can book to have a telephone consultation with a doctor or nurse. They will ring you at an agreed time on the telephone number you have given. This will usually be at the end of surgery unless it is an immediate emergency.

Our Reception Team will ask what your problem is so they can signpost you to the most appropriate Clinician to treat you.

If you have a mobile phone and we know your number we will text you a reminder the day before to keep or cancel your appointment.

If you are unable to attend an appointment for any reason please let us know as soon as possible.
Please help us to use our clinical time effectively as many appointments are lost each week when patients do not inform us they cannot attend.

About the service

The Fylde Coast NHS has arranged for additional appointments to be provided outside of normal GP practice hours by the Fylde Coast Integrated Urgent Care Service.

The service offers pre-bookable and same-day routine primary care appointments with a range of clinicians including GPs, nurses and health care assistants.

Please be aware that this is not a walk-in service – you must have an appointment.

Home Visits

Our Doctors see four patients or more in Practice in the time it takes to do a single home visit. For this reason, we ask our patients to come to the Practice if at all possible. We also have specialist equipment available in surgery should you require an examination. However we can visit you at home if your condition means you cannot attend the practice.

If you do require a home visit please try to ring before 10.00am and let us know if your condition is urgent.

You will be visited by the DUTY DOCTOR ON CALL.

Out Of Hours

Stonyhill Medical Practice offers patients registered with our practice a full GP service when our practice is closed.

When calling the surgery telephone number a recorded message will inform you to dial ***111***

Or hold and your call will be re-directed automatically to the 111 service that will triage your call and direct you to the best possible care for your condition.

You can also attend The Walk-In Centre located at Whitegate Drive Health Centre, Whitegate Drive, Blackpool FY3 9ES. The Walk in Centre is open every day from 8.00am – 8.00pm. You do not need an appointment to attend. Alternatively, telephone 01253 655871.
