Please note that when booking appointments you will be asked to give a brief description of the reason you wish to have an appointment. You are asked for this information so that you can be directed towards the most appropriate service which could include advance or urgent appointments with a GP, Advanced Practitioner, Practice Nurse or Health Care assistant. A telephone call from the GP may be appropriate or a visit to see your local pharmacist.
Services are also available via our website to consult with a GP via the e-consult service. Our online service, for which you will need to sign up at the surgery, allows access your own medical record for the purpose of reordering regular prescriptions and to book appointments, subject to availability.
Advance / routine appointments with doctors are offered at Ventnor Medical Centre between the hours of 9AM and 5:30PM.
Appointments are generally only offered Monday to Friday and the practice does not open on bank holidays.
Ventnor Medical Practice has access to Extended Access routine GP appointments available on some Saturdays, approximately once each month. The appointments are likely to be at other local surgeries including at Niton and Sandown practices and will be with a duty GP. If this would assist you to see a GP enquire with the admin team who should be able to advise when the next available session is being held and where.
Routine appointments for Nurses may be booked up to 4 weeks in advance and could be at either Ventnor Medical Centre or Grove House Surgery so please note which of the two sites your appointment is being offered.
Please inform the surgery if you cannot keep an appointment – so that somebody else can be seen instead.
