If at all possible we prefer to see patients at the surgery where full investigative treatment facilities are available, rather than at home. However, should a home visit be necessary we will of course be pleased to do this.
It is very helpful to us if requests for such visits can be phoned in before 10 a.m. (tel: 0131-650-2777) Please do not feel offended if the receptionist asks for some simple details of your illness – it does help the doctor to arrange to see you rapidly if your symptoms sound serious. The Duty Doctor may also speak to you.
