Online Services

Connect to your GP services online and save time. Quick, easy and secure.

All patients can now use a range of NHS services online. This is now the standard way of accessing NHS services in England. Before you call or contact the surgery, try the options below first.

You can still contact the practice by phone or in person, this is just another option, which other patients have found is more convenient and saves them time.

Below are some of the main online services we use in our GP surgery:

SystmOnline

SystmOnline allows patients or someone acting on behalf of the patient to proactively manage their care. SystmOnline is available as an online service if you prefer to use a computer. 

  • view your GP health record – you can request full access to view your record, please send a PATCHS request and we can arrange this
  • order repeat prescriptions
  • send messages to the practice – whilst this is possible, we would prefer PATCHS to be used for queries

PATCHS

To help manage online requests from patients, we use PATCHS. 

This is an online form where you can tell us what you need help with by answering a few simple questions.  You can use PATCHS to contact us about a health query or concern, or to ask for help with an administration query related to your health.  If you already have your NHS Login, you will be able to log in to PATCHS using that.  If not, you can register through the link below.

PATCHS is a way to access your GP practice Online but like all appointments there are a limited number per day. Once these appointments are filled PATCHS will be closed until the next day.

PATCHS – Contact your GP Online

You can register for PATCHS via your registered branch practice website. You’ll be asked to enter your email address and set a password.

Once you have registered, you can access PATCHS by clicking the link on your registered branch practice website or opening the PATCHS app on your smartphone. Login by entering your registered email address & password.

Choose the appropriate option and answer a few simple questions to help your GP understand your problem.

Your answers are sent to your GP who responds as quickly as possible. Initial responses may be via online message or phone, with face-to-face or video consultation appointments scheduled if necessary.
