Parking & Speed

Please be considerate when parking and driving on St Andrews Road. 

This is a residential area and we require access to driveways at all times. 

Be mindful of your speed when driving along St Andrews Road, cars can get tightly packed on both sides of the road meaning accidents are more likely to occur when travelling at speed. 

This is to protect your safety as well as others.  

Thank you for your co-operation.

Online Access using AccurX at the Hollies Medical Centre

You can request an appointment with the GP online with AccurX messaging via the appointment page. Just follow the link on the appointment page and send us the information about your request. This Is for urgent and routine enquiries, AccurX is open between 8am-8.30am for appointment requests. If we have it open any longer we get too overwhelmed with requests and it becomes unsafe. You do not need a login for accurx. 
 
Many thanks
