Please note the Practice is closed on the 2nd Thursday of every month 08:00 - 13:00

Would you like an appointment with a GP, Nurse, or Health Care Practitioner in the evening or at the weekend when we are closed ?

If so, you can book your appointment now by contacting us.
 
Access Services are an extension of our usual service, it is not a walk-in service, and you will need to make an appointment through the practice reception. The service gives you more flexibility in where, when and how you use local health services. It helps those who struggle to get to the doctors during the week because of work and family commitments.
NOTE: Whilst you may not get to see your own doctor during these hours, and it may not be at your own practice location, the GP or Nurse you see will have access to your medical record, subject to your consent.

APPOINTMENTS ARE AVAILABLE:
Monday to Friday - Daytime & Evenings
Saturday and Sunday - Daytime
Bank Holidays – Daytime
 
APPOINTMENT TYPES:
Face to Face – You will see a clinician in person and be required to go to the service location
Telephone Consultation – You will be called by one of our clinicians during your appointment time. This will be from a withheld number and you will not be required to go to the service location unless offered at the time

If you are in need of medical assistance between the hours of 18:30 and 08:00 Monday to Friday, or over the weekend, please call 111. As of 23/07/2018 there is also now an NHS 111 website if you would prefer to contact them via a web browser.
