Extended Access
The surgery is open earlier on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings with appointments from 7.30am. Only routine pre-booked appointments will be available with either a GP or one of our HCAs (for dressings, blood pressures and some vaccinations/injections) during these extra opening hours.
The extended hours work well for patients who are unable to visit the surgery at normal times.
SEVEN DAY ACCESS TO GP SERVICES
A weekend and evening GP and nurse service is also available at the General Practice Hub based at St Mark's Hospital. This is for pre-booked appointments only which can be booked via our receptionists. The GPs and nurses are not from our practice but are able to access your notes with your consent. Online booking is not currently available for this service.
