Whittington Moor Surgery

As part of our ongoing commitment to improve patient access and experience, we have been reviewing the use of eConsult both internally (with our doctors and staff) and externally through feedback from patients, carers, and relatives.
A common concern raised has been that the eConsult forms are too lengthy and time-consuming to complete.

We are pleased to inform you that from Monday 28th April, we will be moving to a new, shorter, and simpler triage form using AccuRx. This will replace the current eConsult triage form.

The new AccuRx form will be accessible in the same way via our website between 8:00am and 10:30am and can be completed from your smartphone, laptop, tablet, or PC.

Thank you for your continued understanding and support.

** PRIVATE WORK SUSPENDED ** 

Due to overwhelming demands on the NHS service we provide we can't accept any Non-NHS / Private work until further notice

It is our aim to create a place where we provide the best care possible for our patients within the constraints of the NHS; where we are supported, have time to reflect and allow ideas to flourish and be realised.

All of these will enhance the experience of our patients, staff, colleagues and local community. It is our aspiration that all staff will know that they are valued, and their work contributes to providing the highest quality of care possible.

We aim to manage the practice in a financially responsible manner.
