Registration is simple – please select our Patient Portal link above. Patients registering this way can make appointments online and request prescriptions. To increase your access to be able to see your blood tests results and recently prescribed medications please provide photo identification to the clinic.
From September all prescriptions are to be ordered via the Patient Portal.
Our friendly team are here to help.
