If you are on repeat medication please make an appointment to see a doctor so they can review your prescription.

Although you may be registered with Dr Bowie, you are free to see any of the GP’s working at the practice.  If you wish to see a particular GP this can be arranged when booking your appointment, although you may occasionally experience a delay, especially at holiday times.
