When completing an eConsult, it is one problem per e-consult.  If your concern can be dealt with at the practice, you will be booked in for either a telephone call from the GP or appontment with one of the prescribing nurses.  We will reply via the econsult site, this may mean via email.  Please check your email account for responses regaring appointments offered at the Hub in Buckland Hospital, Physio, Pharmacy, or any other advice offered.

eConsult enables NHS based GP practices to offer online consultations to their patients.doc
