What is eConsult?
We now offer a service called eConsult which allows patients to contact our practice and clinicians for medical and administrative requests. Next time you need to contact the practice, click on the banner and fill out a request form.
eConsult is a free to use online consultation platform, which allows anyone registered at the practice to submit a medical or administrative request online at any time of the day, 7 days a week. Our team will review every request and make sure it is passed to the most relevant healthcare professional. If you need a face to face appointment we can arrange that for you, or it might even save you a trip to the practice. We will always get back to you by the end of the next working day, if not sooner.
