Welcome to Sunniside Surgery

Our mission at Sunniside Surgery is to work as a team, providing our patients with a high quality service at all times. 

 

 We are here for GP face to face and telephone appointments. Patients can also book in with the nurse for procedures such as smears, annual reviews, NHS health checks and much more.

If unsure please contact reception.

We also encourage patients to make use of the online services such as e-Consult and Patient Access for more flexibility and to assist the admin team.

There are appointments with the GP to book on-line for both face to face and the telephone.
