Our Common Questions
Some of our most frequently asked questions:
How do I know if I should see a GP?
If your symptoms are worrying, not improving after a few days, or interfering with daily life, it’s a good idea to book an appointment. Trust your instincts—if something feels off, get it checked.
Can I treat my illness at home?
Many minor illnesses (like colds, mild sore throats, or small injuries) can be managed with rest, fluids, and over-the-counter medication. If symptoms get worse or last longer than expected, contact us.
How long should a cold or flu last?
Colds usually improve within 7–10 days. Flu can last up to 2 weeks. If symptoms are severe, not improving, or include breathing difficulty, seek medical advice.
Do I need antibiotics?
Antibiotics only work for bacterial infections, not viruses like colds or flu. A GP can assess whether they’re necessary.
Can I get advice without an appointment?
Yes – our reception team is here to help guide you. Please provide as much accurate information as you can so our admin team can direct you to the most appropriate service.
What should I do if I run out of medication?
Contact us or your pharmacy as soon as possible. In urgent cases, pharmacists can sometimes provide an emergency supply
