Tell them if you prefer phone or face-to-face, need an interpreter, have communication/access needs, or prefer a specific clinician.
The Patient Services Team asks what you need help with so they can choose the most suitable doctor, nurse or health professional.

It is [getting worse / not improving / affecting daily life]. I have tried [self-care or medicine].

The prescription page gives clear rules: order when you have less than 7 days of medication remaining, allow 72 hours excluding weekends, and contact the pharmacy after 72 hours to confirm they received it and ask when it will be ready.
| Prescription task | Official route | Practical patient note |
|---|---|---|

| First day of illness | Tell your employer on the first day you are ill and incapable of work. | Keep dates clear. |
| Likely off work more than one week | Book a routine appointment to discuss with a GP. | If you recover before appointment, phone so the slot can be offered to another patient. |
