Patient Notice

We are open Monday – Friday 8am – 6:30pm (closed on weekends and bank holidays). We take urgent clinical requests to see GPs or Advanced Nurse Practitioners between 7am and 10am via our PATCHS form.

Please be advised the majority of our appointments are on the day so please try to contact on a day you are available to attend the practice. Routine requests – such as blood tests, smears, asthma reviews, prescriptions, fit notes etc. may be submitted via our PATCHS ‘admin query’ form between 7am – 6:30pm. We will deal with your request within 1 working day.

📣 Patient Notice – PATCHS Coming Soon

🔄 Important: Submitting Requests on Behalf of Others

If you’re submitting a PATCHS request for someone you care for (such as a child, relative, or friend), please make sure the request is submitted under the name and details of the person who needs care, not your own.

This ensures we can provide safe, accurate, and timely care to the right patient.

From Monday 4th August, Chorlton Family Practice will begin using a new online system called PATCHS to help manage patient queries more efficiently and improve the care we provide.

PATCHS allows you to contact the practice quickly and easily for:

  • Medical advice
  • Prescription requests
  • Fit notes
  • Admin queries

You’ll be able to access PATCHS through our practice website.

🙏 We kindly ask for your patience

As we implement this new system, there may be a short period of adjustment for both staff and patients. We appreciate your understanding while we make these improvements.

Thank you for your support and patience as we make this positive change.
If you need help using PATCHS, our team is here to assist.
