How does eConsult work?

  1. Complete a simple form about your problem or request.
  2. Your GPs decide on the best treatment for you or you may directed to help elsewhere.
  3. The practice responds with advice, a prescription or an appointment.

 

Please note: the eConsult service is not available on weekends. Please call NHS 111 if you need urgent advice during this time.
