21/7/25 IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

We HAVE to change our clinical patient information system. This is beyond our control. It WILL cause major disruption for the few weeks before and after the changeover day. We will update regularly on Facebook and on our Website and in practice.

"Go Live Day" is Tuesday 2nd Sept 2025.

WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND SUPPORT

26/3/25 We are no longer able to accept Chemist Prescription requests on behalf of our patients from 1 May 2025. This is as per the Board Directive. Patients can contact the practice to get signed up for online ordering or they can leave their repeat order form in the surgery. There is a post box on the front wall for use during out of hours also.

Thank you for your co-operation.

PRACTICE MERGER

On 1/8/23 Bridge Street Family Practice patients transferred across to Foyleside Family Practice. We have now successfully merged and welcome our new patients.

PLEASE CLICK on our LATEST NEWS under our Quick Links section at the top R.H.S of this page for more news.

CONSULTATIONS

We offer same day Face to Face appointments with a GPs , Advanced Nurse Practitioner  or a Mental Health Practitioner . You may also be offered an appointment with our Practice Nurse, Social Worker or a phone call from our Pharmacist. PLEASE ring as early as possible from 8.30am in the morning as once capacity is reached we will be dealing with urgent requests for the remainder of the day and you will be asked to ring back at another suitable time. There are some phone call slots for patients who decline a Face to Face appointment. We are constantly reviewing our appointment system to reflect demand.

Practice receptionists will take a brief history of the problem that you are calling about so that they can divert you to the most suitable member of the team to help you with that problem. All information is treated confidentially. Thank you for your cooperation.

With patients' needs at the heart of everything we do, our website has been designed to make it easy for you to gain instant access to the information you need. As well as specific practice details such as opening hours and how to register, you’ll find a wealth of useful pages covering a wide range of health issues along with links to other relevant medical organisations.
