Dr Kavita Bhardwaj GP Peterborough: Booking and Attending Appointments

You must register at the practice before you can see Dr Kavita Bhardwaj GP Peterborough. Once registered, you can make appointments in person or by phone. However, walking in without an appointment may result in being asked to return later.

Furthermore, if you cannot attend a booked slot, cancel in advance. This ensures that another patient can be seen in your place.

Investigations, Prescriptions, and Specialist Referrals

If your condition needs further tests, your GP will arrange them. These may be done at the practice or another medical facility. In either case, your doctor will explain the process clearly.

Additionally, if a specialist is required, your GP will refer you. You cannot self-book with an NHS specialist.

When medication is necessary, your GP gives you a prescription. Take it to your pharmacy for collection.

Interpreter Support and Gender Preferences

If you prefer a GP of a certain gender, confirm availability before you register. Not all practices have both male and female doctors.

For patients who do not speak English fluently, interpreter services are available. However, these must be booked in advance. Interpreters may assist face-to-face or over the phone. Similarly, if someone else calls for you, remind them to request this when booking.

Respect, Updates, and Politeness in Practice

Our practice offers professional care with courtesy and respect. We expect patients to treat the team with the same consideration.

Always inform the practice if you change your address or contact details. This ensures effective communication.

Moreover, please book a separate appointment for each family member. For complex concerns, ask for a longer slot when booking.

After-Hours Advice and Other Support Services

When the surgery is closed, call the usual number. Your call will be redirected to the Out of Hours service or NHS 111.

For minor issues like colds or coughs, your pharmacist may help and eye problems, see an optometrist.
