Extended Access
All GPs now start work early on Monday morning. Please note that these are pre-booked appointments and it is not an open surgery; the practice will open as usual at 0830 when the phone lines will also be open.
Minor Injuries
We are happy to treat patients with minor injuries
but if we feel it appropriate e.g. the need for an X-ray, then we
may have to refer you to A&E at
Book Appointments On-Line
You can now book appointments on line H24 but to be fair to all patients not all appointments are available on-line. To use this service you must first register for EMISaccess, in person, at reception.
GPs attached for Specialist Training (ST)under the Vocational Training Scheme (VTS)
As an accredited Training Practice we often have a Specialist Training (ST) GP who is under our supervision for 12 months. They are fully qualified doctors who have decided to follow a career as a GP and will need to video some of their consultations and your permission will always be sought before this is done and no offence will be taken if you decline; please note that the ceiling mounted video camera cannot see anything inside the curtained area and that all video consultations can be monitored in real time by Dr Julia Visick who has overall responsibility for VTS doctors training whilst they are at Marysville. For more details of the VTS scheme go to http://www.shropshirevts.com/contact.htm
We have to undergo regular assessment to retain out training status and this includes a formal inspection every 3 years, we were last inspected in July 2009 when our status was renewed for another 3 years.
Patient Satisfaction Survey Results
We now have the results back from the 2010/11 survey. Overall we scored very highly, maintaining the good results from previous years. Your scores and where appropriate, your personal comments have been noted and will be considered. NB This is a government controlled survey, we have no input to the questions and we do not decide who is asked to complete it.

Practice Opening Times :
Mon-Fri: 8:30am - 6:00pm
For pre-booked appointments only Monday 7am to 8 am
Unlike most other surgeries the telephones and the building are not closed at lunchtimes so that appointments can be made at any time. Prescriptions can also be collected throughout the day.
It is also possible to drop off prescription requests outside of these hours. We now have a mailbox, fitted to the pedestrian entrance in the perimeter fence to allow you to do this when the surgery is closed. Please see the prescriptions page for easier ways to obtain your prescription.
