Practice History

We are a three-doctor practice working from the Sedlescombe and Westfield Surgeries. We are pleased to accept patients from within our practice area - Sedlescombe, Westfield, Broad Oak, Brede, Three Oaks, Battle (east of the High Street), Whatlington, Cripp's Corner, Staplecross and Ewhurst Green.

Under the new GMS contract, patients are registered with the practice rather than an individual GP and you are free to consult whoever you feel can help you best at the time. However, patients may have to wait longer to see their chosen practitioner. We offer advanced access appointments every weekday, so that you can be seen on the day you want to be seen. These appointments may not be booked in advance, so please ring the surgery between 8.30 and 10.00am for an appointment on that day. If the surgery is extremely busy, we would appreciate non-urgent appointments waiting until the next day if at all possible. There are some pre-bookable appointments for all surgeries, including well person checks, surgical procedures and children’s clinics. We prefer to see you at the surgery at which you are registered but if you need to be seen urgently we will always see you at the other surgery. In this case, please make sure that the receptionist realises when you arrive that you are registered at our other surgery.

Where you need to speak briefly to the doctor (to discuss matters other than those which may involve a home visit), you may telephone at the end of morning surgery at 11.30am. You must always speak to the doctor on duty at the surgery at which you are registered.
