Private Fees

Most of the work we do here at the surgery is covered by our NHS contract. However, the Government expect us to charge for Non-NHS work, as do dentists and other professionals, irrespective of whether a patient is receiving benefits or not.

Below is a guide to our nationally approved fees:

Anti-Social Behaviour

The practice operates a ‘zero tolerance’ policy to aggressive and abusive behaviour. This includes any personal, abusive and aggressive gestures. Any incident of verbal abuse, whether in person or over the telephone, is reported immediately to the Practice Manager. Incidents are discussed with the doctors, who will agree a course of action, which may result in the patient’s removal from the practice list.

Confidentiality

The practice adheres to the NHS, Confidentiality Code of conduct procedures. The practice recognises the right of every patient to have information about them kept safe, secure and private. Any information given to any member of staff will remain confidential. The practice has a confidentiality agreement and policy which is adhered to by every member of staff.
