Wheelchair users
There is parking directly next to the door of the
practice,and we have paid for the pavement to be ramped to the entry level.
Our team will be more
than happy to help you and you can let them know of any special requirements when you make
your appointment.
The waiting area has ample space for
wheelchairs, and there is a ramp and handrail through to the rear consulting
room.

A particular interest at our practice is the
challenge of helping people with dyslexia. There are a range of colour overlays and other
tests to try to help children or adults with dyslexia. Ask when making
your appointment for an assessment.

Patients with Learning Difficulties or other
challenges
We welcome anyone at this practice with special
needs, and there is ample space in the consulting for patients to be accompanied
by relatives or key workers during the eye examination.

Domiciliary Visits
We carry out eye examinations for people who are
housebound or in long term hospital care. Visits are also made to
residential and nursing homes, where you should ask the duty matron to make you
an appointment.
Such visits are normally carried out on alternate
Mondays, so you should allow plenty of time for booking an appointment.
