Conduct
Our staff will be courteous and respectful at all times and will endeavour to help you to the best of their ability, although they may need to refer you to another department or member of the team to deal with your enquiry. They understand that patients are often worried or under stress when attending or telephoning the surgery.

In extreme cases the police may be summoned to remove offenders from the Practice premises. Persons abusing this policy risk removal from the Practice list.
