   Having issues finding a doctor? Try the following:

   
   - Change the search type to Organisation, and search for the practice name.

   - Try a partial name search if you're unsure of the full name. "Bob Johnson" can be found by searching for "John B" or "Jo Bob".

   - If the doctor has a space in their surname, try leaving out the space. For example, "Bob Von Doctor" can by found by searching "VonDoctor" as the surname.
