The Ridgeway Surgery - Information about the doctors surgery opening hours, appointments, online prescriptions, health information and much more

Noticeboard

To prevent the spread of coronavirus (COVD-19), we are moving all requests for appointments to a telephone triage system. Please ring us between 08:20 -10:00 am if you need medical advice for acute conditions. After the doctors call, patients who need to be seen in person will be given a face to face appointment at the surgery.

Alongside telephone, video, face to face appointment we now have online consultations.

This health advice can be accessed either via https://www.online-consult.co.uk/org/the-ridgeway-surgery

Or for patients who have an online access, can access it via the "health advice" tab.

Welcome to The Ridgeway Surgery.

We are a small family practice with 4800 patients. The practice team includes doctors, a clinical pharmacist, nurses, health care assistants, dispensary, reception and admin staff.

We are part of a wider group of 6 GP surgeries and share other staff across this Primary Care network (PCN).

We are committed to providing life long, high quality care to the local community including prenatal, childrens and working age care.

We have a vibrant patient group which is helping us be more responsive to the needs of our patients.

During the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic we have adapted to social distancing in many ways. We continue to see patients in person in the surgery but start out with either a telephone appointment or online consultation, whichever is easier.
