GP online services allow you to access a range of services via your computer, mobile or tablet. Once you have signed up, you will be able to:
- book or cancel appointments online
- renew or order repeat prescriptions online
- view parts of your GP record, including information about medication, allergies, vaccinations, previous illnesses and test results
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. More information including “how to” leaflets and videos of patients and why they are using GP online services are available at www.nhs.uk/gponlineservices

Online Access To Medical Record

Linked Profiles (Proxy Access)
If you would like somebody to help manage your health, you can give them access to your online services. This is called a linked profile in the NHS app or proxy access in other online providers. The other person may be a parent, family member or carer.
You need to ask the practice to setup proxy access for you. Please submit a request using our online form. The person you are giving access to will need to show us their identification odcuments
If the person you want to give access to is registered with us, they can use the NHS app to view your services as a linked profile.
If the person you want to give access to is registered at a different practice, they can use Patient Access as a proxy user for your services.
