We also offer pre-booked telephone appointments with Doctors. You can book appointments online – just ask at reception or go to www.hmmc.info for more details. Appointment slots are allocated on a per person basis. What do I do if I need an Urgent Appointment?If you need an urgent appointment, please contact the Surgery on (0161) 432 0671 as early as possible, you will be put on a computerised list and a nurse will contact you within the hour (Nurse Triage). Please ensure you give the receptionist a contact number.Nurse TriageThis service is provided by both practices to ensure that all patients receive appropriate health care as soon as possible. This may be an appointment with a GP, a nurse practitioner, a practice nurse, the treatment room nurse or a home visit. In some circumstances the triage nurse may be able to give you advice on how to care for the problem yourself.If you phone the practice to ask for an appointment with a doctor or a home visit on the same day, you will be asked by the receptionist for a contact phone number so that one of the nurses can phone you back. The triage nurse will ask you for more information about the problem so that she can ensure that you see the most appropriate member of the healthcare team. This information will also help her to assess the urgency of the problem which could be vital if you or one of your family are seriously ill. All the nurses are experienced and have received special training to provide this service. The nurses are also happy to advise you if you are not sure whether you need to see the doctor or just need health care advice. How To / FAQ If you have more questions, they may be answered in the “How Do I?” section at our web site: www.hmmc.info which has all this information and more on it.

DOCTORS Dr T N Billington [Male]Dr M Adair [Female]Dr R Locke [Female]Dr P Henderson [male]Dr B Duncan [male] Dr D L Dawson [Male]Dr B Jorasz [Female]Dr M Carmody [Female]Dr J Swarbrick [Male]Dr L Hardie [Female]Dr A George [Female] Practice Profile Heaton Moor Medical Centre is a combination of two practices with a combined patient list of over 19,000 patients. Our GPs and large support teams offer a varied range of services to our patients. The surgery opened in 1971 taking in just six doctors originally. The practice was totally renovated and extended in 1994 and extended again in 2002 and 2009 We are an innovative practice and are always looking for ways to improve our services for patients, through participation in pilots for new ways of providing care, as well as adapting to feedback and suggestions from patients. A Training Practice The practice participates in the advanced training of fully qualified doctors who have chosen to specialise in general practice. The additional Doctors work at the practice for up to one year and share all aspects of medical care with the partners and principal GPs. During their time here, we hope you will view them as we do, an integral part of our team. We also occasionally have student doctors and nurses attached to the practice. You will be advised accordingly, and if you wish to see the doctor or nurse alone, your wishes will be respected. Home Visits
