Signed ON

I have 'signed-on' with the Doctors' Surgery here in Stourport.  I made enquiries and found that this practice was prepared to accept us using our boat name and Stourport Basin as an address.  They have taken an email address and telephone number as a point of contact.  Now at least we have a Doctor that we can get to with a boat should we ever need longer term medical treatment.

Good plan Stan, it's not the emergency visits is it, its the little nagging stuff, repeat perscriptions lalalala that need to be sorted. Hope Joe is bonny and bright and on the mend, make sure he does all his physio, you don't want a lacklustre crew now that you are Captain do you?

I did the same at the GP's in Loughborough. They then sent a hospital appointment to Narrowboat Matilda Rose, Canal Bank Loughborough. Needless to say it didn't arrive!

Hi Lisa
Joe is on the mend - bonny and bright, might be a stretch though!!
To date I have not had any requirement to see a Doc,and long may that continue, but; it sure will be easier to 'park' a boat near Stourport where the local hospitals are Worcester and Kidderminster and both on the canal network.
take care

Hi Jill
I have told the surgery that I am only contactable by e-mail or phone - it might work...
