Make an Appointment
Teldoc Medical Practice takes it very seriously if a member of staff or one of the doctors or nursing team is treated in an abusive or violent way.
The Practice supports the government’s ‘Zero Tolerance’ campaign for Health Service Staff. This states that GPs and their staff have a right to care for others without fear of being attacked or abused. To successfully provide these services a mutual respect between all the staff and patients has to be in place. All our staff aim to be polite, helpful, and sensitive to all patients’ individual needs and circumstances. They would respectfully remind patients that very often staff could be confronted with a multitude of varying and sometimes difficult tasks and situations, all at the same time. The staff understand that ill patients do not always act in a reasonable manner and will take this into consideration when trying to deal with a misunderstanding or complaint.
However, aggressive behaviour, be it violent or abusive, will not be tolerated and may result in you being removed from the Practice list and, in extreme cases, the Police being contacted.
In order for the practice to maintain good relations with their patients the practice would like to ask all its patients to read and take note of the occasional types of behaviour that would be found unacceptable:
We ask you to treat our GPs and their staff courteously at all times.
Update - Please note the practice will be closed from 6pm on Friday 3rd May until 8am on Tuesday 7th May due to the Bank Holiday.
Think which service? - NHS Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin (shropshiretelfordandwrekin.nhs.uk) Please dial 111 for any non-urgent medical issue that cannot wait until the practice reopens. As always please only dial 999 for any urgent/life threatening matters.
