| We are encouraging patients to give their views about how the practice is doing. We would like to be able to find out the opinions of as many patients as possible and are asking if people would like to provide their email addresses so we can contact you by email every now and again to ask you a question or two.
If you are interested please could you fill in this online form and we will add your email address to our contact list. Alternatively, you can phone the practice with your details. Your contact details will only be used for this purpose and will be kept safely.
