Changing how you book appointments

 From 20th April 2026, The way you book appointments with us has changed. Total Triage is a new approach recommended by NHS England, to improve access to services.

We want to make the process of booking an appointment with your GP practice as fair as possible

                                         You can submit an online form during the working day, starting from 7am.                                               We will review your request on the same day (Monday–Friday). Please submit your request as early as possible

If you are unable to complete an online request, please call 0121 421 8400 and a member of staff will be happy to complete the request on your behalf. After filling in your form please keep your phone or device near to you. We will contact you the same day either by text or telephone. This may not mean you will be seen the same day, but you will be informed of next steps.

Newcomen PCN

Some of you may not know this but your practice forms part of a bigger group known as a PCN (Primary Care Network).  Our PCN is called Newcomen and is formed of 6 surgeries across the Black Country. We are led by a Clinical Director and a specific team of staff who work in the background to bring the best care we can to all our patients. Our work is set by the local ICB (Integrated Care Board) and we are contracted to meet certain requirements throughout the year to help improve patient care. We all work collaboratively to help and assist each other in improving general practice in the local area. If you have any further questions or would like to know more about our PCN, please speak to a member of your surgery team.
