The home visiting service

An emergency only home visiting service is offered for patients unable to attend the clinic but Mr Thomson is not able to take ongoing home visit patients. In all cases it is much better for them if the patient can make it to the clinic and arrangements for out of hour clinic appointments can be made to enable relatives to bring them. Do call the clinic to discuss your specific needs and we will try to meet them.
