If it is your first use of NEPTS, you will need to book via the telephone and create your record and thereafter the online system will be available.

28 April 2023 NEWSLETTER
We have to collect certain data from our patients regarding their health status. In the next few days we will be sending out text messages to all of our patients that have opted in for communications via SMS asking for information regarding smoking status.
When we send this text message, it will appear to be sent from a provider called "AccuRX" sending on behalf of The Wilson Practice. It will ask you to follow a link to the questionnaire. AccuRX is a secure SMS service that allows us to communicate securely with our patients, they are approved by our ICO and Data Protection Team and no patient data is stored on their servers for reasons other than direct patient care.
If you do not have a smartphone, unfortunately you will be unable to follow the link. We are, however, going to be asking patients their status whenever they visit the practice in person, or otherwise make contact with us, so please do not worry if you are not able to submit your results due to technology restrictions.
Dear patients,
Firstly, we would like to wish you all a very happy and healthy new year.
We are back online with e-consults and are operating our usual service.
Should this change, we will update the website and Facebook pages accordingly. The whole service, not just primary care are under immense pressure, hence the need to adapt our service in line with local and national demand and recommendations.
Thank you for your continued support. Kind regards
The Wilson Practice
