Please do not ask for a home visit unless the patient is unable to get to the surgery. In particular most children can quite safely be brought to the surgery by car.

Please contact Eyam surgery before 10:00 and be prepared to discuss the need for the visit with the receptionist. They are trained to ask specific questions that will assist the Doctor with his/her evaluation of the situation. We cover a large rural area therefore we need to plan our visits according to urgency and location.
